Milaâs story is one of resilience, love, and second chances. At just around 2 years old, Mila was rescued from beneath a mobile home with her 11 puppies when they were only three days old. At the time, Mila had little experience with people and had never truly known what it felt like to be loved. Severely underweight at only 35 pounds, she had spent her life simply surviving.
Today, Mila is thriving and healthy at over 100 lbs and has blossomed into an incredible companion. One of the sweetest things about Mila is watching her discover how wonderful affection can be. She now comes over asking for ear rubs, loves hugs and kisses, and happily settles at your feet while you watch TV. She adores having a soft, cozy bed to curl up in at the end of the day.
Mila is a playful, goofy girl who has learned that toys are fun and that life can be enjoyable. She loves playing with other dogs and has integrated beautifully with her fosterâs German Shepherd. While she enjoys canine companionship, she would also be perfectly happy as your one-and-only best friend.
Sheâs house-trained, trustworthy when left alone, loves car rides, enjoys treats, and is always ready for an adventure. Mila is gentle, docile, and has never shown aggression toward other animals. She even ignores rabbits running through the yard! She has been around cats in the past, but her current foster does not have cats, so a proper introduction would be recommended.
Mila is still learning some of the basicsâshe hasnât quite figured out the whole âsitâ command yetâbut she is making progress every day. What she lacks in obedience skills, she more than makes up for with her loving heart and eagerness to please.
Milaâs ideal home is simply one filled with patience, kindness, and love. Give her a little time to settle in, and sheâll reward you with unwavering loyalty, companionship, and plenty of smiles. After everything sheâs been through, Mila is finally ready to find the forever family she deserves.
