Millie

Millie was found about 3 or 4 months ago on the side of the road. I've tried to find her owners using signs, word of mouth, social media post. I still have Millie, I would love to keep Millie for myself unfortunately I cannot afford vet care or even to have her spayed right now. Millie is a very sweet girl, she loves to cuddle. She loves playing with other dogs, I'm sure she would prefer to be in a household with either another puppy or dog in general, she does love cats too. Millie really loves everyone!
Millie is incredibly impressive, so brilliant. I have never had a puppy but I Foster dogs and worked in shelters, so the second week she was here I just was curious about training, I started a teach her a game called touch. She picked it up in a couple tries. Very next day she learned how to sit and lay down. I use high value chicken treats and Mark with the word yes! She should have positive reinforcement only, I do believe her laid back temperament would be diminished otherwise.
