st a little more depending on his exact age. The shelter initially guessed Milo’s age to be around 3, but based on his behavior and teeth, we are guessing he’s between 1 and 1.5 years old (birthday most likely between January and July of 2024). Sweet, gentle Milo (along with his little fur family) was brought in as a stray to a local animal shelter in a suspected backyard breeder case. He became fearful and emotionally shut down in the shelter environment and was close to being put down. We had to rescue him! Once Milo got to his foster home, he became much happier and more relaxed. He does great with meeting new dogs and integrated into the pack very quickly when he arrived to foster care. He loves playing with his doggy foster siblings, especially a larger male Great Pyrenees named Bear who quickly took Milo under his wing, and they are now the best of friends. (Bear is also available for adoption if you’re interested in a pair of Pyrs!) He still has some chewing tendencies and loves Nyla bones just a little more than he likes chewing wood/furniture. He does not have any food aggression issues and waits patiently to be fed in his crate while his siblings are fed. He loves getting attention from his people but can be a little wary of strangers until he gets to know them better. Milo does well with kids but can be a little unsure about them initially, so a calm, patient introduction to children would be best. Milo would do well in any home but would do best in a home with other dogs he could play with. (If you don’t have a dog buddy for him, you might consider adopting his bestie, Bear, as well.) Milo is house trained and crate trained and prefers to sleep in his crate at night. He is leash trained and loves to go outside for walks and loves going to dog parks to say hello to everyone and run and play with as many dogs as he can. Milo has been known to bark or whine some to let you know he needs to go outside. He has been on a few car rides and is still a little nervous in the car, but is getting used to it. He has a moderate amount of energy and would do well with long daily walks and/or a buddy to play with throughout the day. A house with a yard would be the best fit for him; he would most likely struggle in an apartment setting. SPIN Pyrs are all in foster homes in the Dallas/Fort Worth area.
