About Milo
Milo's Movie https://youtu.be/mHd3WZU8rZc
Statement of Good Health and Vet Assessment in writing done recently - 19th June 2018
Generally.
Milo is a calm, placid and gentle golden retriever. He has the most fantastic nature.
He loves to be close to people and will be a devoted and loyal companion. Milo thrives on love and affection.
His only vice is that he is a 'food-a-holic' and will eat all day if allowed to so his intake needs to be monitored.
Ideal home.
Milo will suit homes with a stay at home parent, empty nesters or retirees who are home more often than not. He loves to be close by and will shadow you around the garden sitting quietly close by.
Milo will thrive in a home where he is welcome to be involved with family activities. While he is fine alone during the day he would prefer not to be alone for extended periods because he is very people orientated.
He will not suit homes where residents are very young, frail, elderly, time poor or looking for a baby sitter for a lonely dog because the owners are rarely home.
Recent Vet Assessment available. Says he is happy and healthy - gr8 for his age.

______________________________________
We strongly recommend you read the profile carefully where everything we know about the dog/s is outlined.
If you are interested in a dog we invite you to submit an application form so we can learn more about your circumstances. This is to ensure we match the right dog to the best home. (one form per family - not per dog) https://www.dogadoption.org.au/expression-of-interest---adoption.html
This is for the benefit of both the dog and the potential new owner(s). It also saves time and uses limited resources more effectively.
Once the essential criteria is confirmed we put you in touch with the carer for a more detailed chat with a view of meeting the dog(s).
If you decide to proceed with the adoption we make a time for a house check.
The adoption fee is then paid (there is a 2 week cooling off period.) Please note we offer a 2 week cooling off period but do not usually allow trials. See here for the difference https://www.dogadoption.org.au/can-my-dogs-new-owner-have-a-trial-period-before-deciding-to-adopt.html
Foster carers are also able to adopt foster dogs once approved.
