His story from his foster, The Miller Cheat Sheet❤️:
It has been a pleasure being able to foster Miller (Milton)! He is ready to find his forever home, he will be a hard one to let go of! Miller is friendly, playful, and loving for not having the easiest up bringing. He has learned to sit, lay down, come, stay, and ‘on the mat’ for when he comes inside with wet paws. He is a sniffer so it sometimes takes a second when he is outside. Best to be kept tied on walks or if the yard is not fenced as his outdoor recall is still a work in progress.
He walks well on a leash, prefers his harness over a collar. He likes to stop and sniff in the same areas typically. Doesn’t pull hard and can heal to sit if he starts going a little too fast. He has interests in other people and dogs but if kept close, told to sit, or kept engage with you he will walk past just fine. He has been left alone for up to 3-4 hours alone and no damage has been done. He does like to chew and rip toys but doesn’t eat them. A bone and a large rope has been his favourites.
He plays well with our cat and has never shown any agression nor to any other dogs either. He has been tested off leash with 3 different dogs on trails and he happy staying close and playing them and when recalled they both returned. Doesn’t seem interested in chasing critters.
As I work from home he does get frequent outside breaks. From being severely dehydrated it has taken him a bit to hold his pee for longer periods of time. But it has been greatly improved and continues too. He will either whine or go to the back door to let me know when he needs to go. And will bark when he is ready to be let back in.
He is a great happy dog. He made met a 2.5 year old with excitement and lots of licks but sometimes doesn’t realize getting too close for pets can knock her over but she was just as giddy hanging out with him. He has also met kids waiting for the bus on our morning walks and is being taught to sit for pets/treats. An obedience class would be beneficial for the fine tuning and working with outdoor distractions. But consistency with reward treats and toys have been working wonders. He aims to please!
