Milo

"Milo" is an approx 70-lb, 2-yo neutered male GSD mix who is very affectionate, playful and submissive. Milo is friendly with everyone he meets, both inside the house and beyond. He loves to be held and petted. At times, he seems overly-needy of affection, but then he does have to compete for affection with several other dogs at the GSRSV rescue ranch. I have not observed Milo with children but I think he'll be great with kids. Milo is great with other dogs. He's very playful with dogs who are somewhat submissive like he is. He gets scared of those dogs who play really rough. Milo's only drawback w/ other dogs is that sometimes he gets possessive around food. This behavior has subsided considerably since I took Milo in, and I can now feed him biscuits with dogs right next to him without him showing any aggression at all. However, if he has a "special treat", like a bone, he will become possessive over it. I have not had Milo around cats but I imagine he'd do OK w/ them. I will consider a home for Milo w/ a dog-savvy cat or two, but only if there is already a dog in the home. Milo is completely housetrained and has never had an accident in the house since I rescued him. He is crate-trained as well. Milo appears to walk well on a leash, though I haven't had him on leash much at all. He seems to know some basic commands. Milo is a dog who would love to have somebody around most of the time to give him love and attention. He really craves affection. GSRSV rescued Milo from the Stanislaus County Shelter in Modesto on 6-1-23. He had been found as a stray on 4-4-23. Milo is located in Pleasant Grove, CA. His adoption fee is $300.
