Typical Terrier, Milo is an energetic, loving, good natured and very entertaining little man. He previously lived with various members of the same family, mainly with an older gentleman who sadly died, and then went to live with the daughter who lived in an upstairs flat and worked 12 hour shifts. Whilst Milo is good being left, this obviously was far from ideal.
Milo is an 8 year old, neutered JRT/Plummer Terrier Cross and weighs 8kg. He is currently living in a foster home in Basingstoke provided by Stray2Me Rescue. Please note that he is not from Romania.
His foster Mum says the following:
“He is ball obsessed and loves tug toys as well. He’s very loving and will leap on you and crawl up for a snuggle. He’s very busy on walks like most terriers. He’s never been trained to walk to heel, and zigzags in typical terrier fashion. Milo takes himself to bed happily downstairs, but can bark if he feels it’s time to get up, but that’s never before 7-7.45am.
Milo mostly ignores my dogs, but sometimes tries to play with Kingy, who’s 4x his size. I think he’d play better with dogs his own size. He’s good with dogs and he never retaliates. Milo has been around cats in the past, but I will try to test him myself asap.
Milo has been around young children in the past. Apparently he would get a bit giddy, but settled after a while. He would take food from children, as manners are not his forte, so maybe no toddlers.
Milo marked his territory indoors to start with and had a few accidents when he forgets himself but, with the right routine, that shouldn’t persist, especially as time passes since neutering. He was worried in the car when we collected him and the lady said he’d never been in one, but he enjoys it now.
A week or so after arrival, Milo became itchy. This is new, so he’s possibly slightly allergic to something here, possibly my dogs as they shed a great deal. He’s on Apoquel for now, which will be reduced in increments and monitored. His vaccinations will be restarted soon.”
