A Little Bit About Milly

Note: This dog is currently being cared for in a home and when adopted, it will free up a spot to help another dog.

Don't let her age fool you – Milly might be 8, but she's full of beans and always up for fun. With a spring in her step, a soft toy in her mouth, and a nose that's always on the lookout for snacks, this girl brings joy wherever she goes.

Milly is an incredibly affectionate girl who absolutely adores pats from head to tail and will happily soak up all the attention you have to give. She's a smart cookie who's eager to please, especially when food's involved, and loves a good game of tug-of-war with her favourite people. Milly is a strong dog, so she'll do best with someone who can confidently handle her enthusiasm and continue building her manners on lead.

She's fantastic with people and forms strong, loyal bonds with those she loves. While she's still learning how to be appropriate around other dogs and can become frustrated when meeting them on walks, she's making progress and will thrive with a calm, confident owner who's committed to continuing her training and helping her feel more comfortable in these situations.

A gentle giant at heart, Milly's size and excitement mean she's best suited to a home with older, dog-savvy kids (10+). She'd never mean to, but she might accidentally knock over smaller family members when she's caught up in the fun!

During her time in foster care, Milly has shown she's well suited to living with someone who works full time. She's content to spend her day snoozing in the sun on a comfy bed with one of her favourite toys by her side, patiently waiting for her people to return home.

With her affectionate nature, unwavering loyalty, goofy grin, and love for life, Milly is a truly beautiful companion who's ready to find her forever family. If you're looking for a loving best friend who'll brighten every day and keep you smiling, Milly might just be the perfect match.
