Description:

Mila is great with other dogs and loves people!

Mila is a sweet diamond in the rough!

Her foster parents are working on teaching her "no", "lay down", "down" and "sit" commands to start with.

Her foster family hasn't gone on any leashed walks with her due to the bitter cold so she will likely need work learning to walk nicely on leash one it warms up outside. However, she does well with the resident small kids leading her around on the leash in the house with a leash connected to her body harness.

Mila gets along great with the resident female large dog at her foster home.

Currently she stays confined to a bedroom when her foster family is gone and at night and is not kenneled. She is housetrained for the most part now after her initial adjustment. However, she will have the occassional potty accident when home alone, but she will use a puppy pad if you leave one down for her. This has improved greatly in just the short week she's been in her new foster home so adjusting to a permanent home shoud go well once she's on a regular schedule.

She really enjoys playing outside and rolling in the fresh snow so the cold doesn't bother her too much.

The 7 kids in her foster home range from age 12 - 1 year old and she is super sweet with all of them.

The only time her foster family has heard her bark/howl is when they leave her in the bedroom alone when they're leaving the house.

Mila is an amazing soul and with training will make an ideal match for a famiy. Do you think you could open your heart to her and give her that forever home she deserves?

*Please note: We do not know how Mila is with cats at this time.

Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks.

Post Adoption: Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. We highly recommend Pet Insurance. Adoption fees are only part of the expense of owning a pet, so we ask you to consider the costs for the life of the pet before adoption. We recommend pet insurance.

Pet Breeds: The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility or Shelter partner. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed.

If you choose to DNA test your adopted pet, test results may vary from company to company and our breed guess may not be reflected in those results as it is just that, our best guess without knowing a pet’s full history.
