Meet Milo our little Miracle 💙
Milo is a tiny Havapoo, estimated to be around 2 to 2½ years old,
weighing just 11 pounds—and every ounce of him tells a story of survival. This little guy needs to gain some weight. He is definitely underweight.
After the passing of a family member who once cared for him, Milo ended up in a situation where he was sadly neglected. For far too long, he was kept tied up in a basement, without the love, care, and attention every dog deserves.
A kind woman stepped in to try to help, but heartbreak struck again when Milo was attacked by two neighboring dogs, leaving him injured and in very rough condition.
Today, Milo is safe with Dogs Unlimited Rescue, but he has a long road ahead. He is severely matted, suffering from painful eye, ear and foot infections, and healing from injuries to his neck. Milo still needs to be  neutered, and vaccinated. His matting is so bad he may have to be sedated to get him cleaned up so it’s not too painful.
And yet—despite everything he has been through—Milo is as sweet as can be. He gently leans into love, though his little body still trembles from fear and pain. He has shown that he is good with cats and children, and prior to the attack he did well with other dogs. Given what he has endured, we will take things slowly and continue to learn what makes him feel safe again.
A huge thank you to Taya Belle for getting Milo to the vet and safely transporting him to his foster home. A heartfelt thank you to Mary Lou Bender who opened her heart and home to this sweet boy. As a retired nurse and devoted dog mom, Milo could not be in more loving or capable hands.
Milo’s journey is just beginning—but we truly believe he is nothing short of a miracle. ✨
Stay tuned as we help this brave little soul heal, one day at a time.
