Meet handsome Milo. This gorgeous boy is a 5 month old Kelpie X. He is very eager to please, is a very quick learner and likes the company of other dogs. Milo loves playing in the yard with his foster fur brother and is quite happy to spend most of the day outside. He enjoys company but has also coped well being on his own.

Since being in care Milo has had no problems sleeping outside. He settled in almost straight away and didn’t bark or whimper.

Still being a puppy, Milo will need some training. He has already learnt how to fetch and will do just about anything for a tennis ball. He is working on his manners but sometimes can’t control his excitement and jumps to greet people. Milo is also learning to sit, stay, shake and wait for food. He is a quick learner so it won’t be long before he masters these skills.

Milo hasn’t spent much time inside so may need to work on toilet training. He walks well on a lead but does get a little distracted by other dogs and cars. He is just so keen to play with everyone.

Although not essential, Milos ideal home would include another dog to play with and keep him company or it would be good is someone in the household didn’t work full time. He would also love an active family who will take him for walks or throw him his beloved tennis ball. He is ok around kids but they may need to be a bit older as he would hate to knock smaller kids over when he gets excited.

This lovable boy is ready to please and is so keen to find his forever home. He would make a great family dog and just wants to be loved.
