I'm Mylo and I'm a 2 year old scruffy dude who needs a new pad to call home!
I'm a bit over 6.5kg at the moment so am pretty dinky but I've been told to put a little on as I am a bit skinny under all that fur so perhaps I will hit 7kg.
I've got the most amazing underbite and I seem to have some mini canines behind my top ones! It doesn't stop me enjoying a good chew or eating but I do dribble a little water when I drink.
I'm currently in foster at Toby's house 🐶 who's an older gent and I've been amazing at giving him his space and sharing his mummy and daddy.
My foster mummy hasn't been that well since I've arrived but I've been helping her recover and she's on the mend - I like to think because of me! 🥰
I love to play and did also have a foster sister but she's moved to her forever home and would love it if I had a doggy sibling (or frequent visiting friend) who also wanted to play with me.
I'm great in the house.
I sleep downstairs happily and can be left up to 4 hours.
I am mostly clean - my foster home are still getting used to my toileting routine. Where I do need to go and they haven't realised, I will toilet inside but always by the door to outside as do want to be clean if I can. I think once they get to know me better, the door will be open at the right times for me.
I love cuddles and playing with my toys.
I do bark when new people come to the house but I quickly calm or can hang out in a separate room.
I'm happy in the car but will whine with excitement at times. Maybe I could find someone who drives for a job and I can hang out with you on your travels!
Grooming wise, I do need regular brushing and depending on the home may need grooming visits up to every 6 weeks. My foster home brush me most days atm and although sometimes I try to play with the brush I am happy to have a little tidy up.
Outside, I'm a bit...well...more! My foster mum says I probably will need to learn to be a bit more chilled but I'm just so excited! Everything seems new and I just want to get to it as quickly as possible so I do pull on the lead. If I see anything (a leaf, bird, car, person) I will get even more excited and might whine a little or start walking on just my hind legs. And if I see another dog, well that's just too much to bear and I MUST bark and squeal with the biggest tail wags going.
I've been told I haven't quite got my social queues down when out and about and apparently other dogs don't always want to play rough and tumble straight away. And their humans don't always appreciate the noise I make!
I'm going to need my new humans who are patient and able to give me some support with my outside excitement - My foster home is working on this and step one is keeping to the same walk and I am getting a little bit more chilled as the time goes on. My current walk is very quiet and I don't see many dogs on it.
I'm probably going to do best in either a home in a more rural parish or if in a busier area, to go for walks at quiet times or taken in the car to a quiet area.
