Meet Milo!! We want to start off by saying we sorry to only have one picture of Milo right now. We wanted to get him posted up as we want him to be able to find his forever home very soon. Milo was brought into the shelter down south by animal control. A nice woman who had him for three days had to call Animal Control to pick him up, as freezing temps were coming and she did not want anything to happen to him. She stated that he showed up at her house and stayed outside for three night. The good Samaritan said that Milo was very shy when he first showed up at the house. She fed him everyday and gave him a bed to lay on. When she went out to check on the horses and all, he would follow along the side of her ATV and not let her out of his site. Once he was brought to the shelter they saw he had a tag on him with his owner's contact information. They contacted the owner who then came down to the shelter to claim him. Once they found out they had to pay fees, the owner said I guess he will never have to be on a chain again and walked out on Milo. We could not let poor Milo down after being let down by his owner. Milo is a shy boy who will need some time and understanding that you will not hurt him. We truly believe he has not had the best life and has not been well socialized. If you are willing to give Milo the love, patience, and time for him to come out of his shell, we believe that he will be your best friend!! Give him a chance and apply for him today. If you would like more information on Milo, please contact Shari at
