MEET MILAN THE MAGNIFICANT
Milan is a gorgeous 3-year-old crossbreed from Romania, weighing around 21kg. This lovely medium-sized boy has been through a lot, but despite everything, his gentle nature and heart-warming “smile” continue to shine through.
Milan can be a little sensitive and nervous when meeting new people or finding himself in unfamiliar situations. But once he learns that he can trust you, you’ll see a completely different side of him. He becomes incredibly affectionate, loves spending time with his humans and has a wonderfully playful personality too. He enjoys toys, games and exploring. He also loves going for walks and having plenty of time to stop and enjoy a good sniff, and he walks beautifully on the lead.
He also enjoys the company of other dogs and has made lots of lovely doggy friends during his time at Islay. He particularly enjoys having a good play and romp around with his canine pals in the secure area. With careful introductions, we feel Milan could happily share his forever home with another friendly dog.
Milan has met a cat previously and showed very little interest — until the cat ran! His chase instinct then kicked in, so we feel a cat-free home would be best, unless there is a very dog-savvy cat who is accustomed to living with dogs.
It is unlikely that Milan has ever lived in a home before, so his new family will need to be patient and understanding as he learns all about domestic life. He may need some support with toilet training, settling into a home and discovering all the wonderful things that come with being a much-loved pet.
Because Milan can initially be wary and easily overwhelmed, a quiet, calm home would suit him best. We feel he would be happiest with adopters who can give him the time and space he needs to settle, and a home without children would be ideal.
Sadly, Milan is beginning to show signs of sadness. He has watched many of his doggy friends leave Islay for their forever homes while he has been left behind. Now, it is Milan’s turn.
Milan doesn’t need perfection — he needs someone who will be patient, kind and willing to help him build his confidence. With reassurance, understanding and positive, reward-based training, we believe this special boy has so much love to give and could become the loyal, devoted companion he so desperately wants to be.
Milan is fully vaccinated, microchipped, and treated for parasites and neutered. He has been tested for Brucella and has his APH certificate.
His adoption fee is £400, which helps rescue other dogs in need.
Could you be the person who finally gives magnificent Milan the forever home he deserves?
Milan is waiting for his chance. Please don’t let him be the one left behind.
