Meet Millie! She is an 14 month old energetic and loving Aussie mix in need of a loyal home. Millie was abandoned in April of 2026 and is looking for a family to call her own forever! Millie loves to play, run, cuddle and hang! She doesn’t mind lying down or hanging out with you while you work and she is always happy to see you. She has had positive interactions with other dogs, small and large, cows, pigs, and horses. She is fond of all animals but is still learning her own size & will need continued training. Millie is loyal and is willing to always be by your side, she loves adventure, car rides & kids! Millie is house broken & crate trained. We are hopeful to find a home for Millie that is just as good as she is!
