Milo is the kind of pup who enters a room like it is the best day of his life and you are the reason why. This young pitbull is bursting at the seams with joy, curiosity, and big teenage energy wrapped up in a solid, snuggly body. He loves hard, plays hard, and feels everything in full color. There is nothing halfway about him. When he is happy, his whole body wiggles. When he bonds, it is deep and devoted. Milo is not subtle, and he is not low key, but he is incredibly genuine. He is the kind of dog who will look at you like you hung the moon and mean it.
HISTORY
MIlo's DOB is July 4, 2025. He comes from a family where he has been raised with a female littermate. Their family has made a great effort to treat them as individual dogs and prevent littermate syndrome.
Milo is located in Kennewick, in Eastern Washington. We share information about our dogs in postings based in other cities to improve their chances of finding a great forever home. He is well worth a road trip, and we encourage you to come and meet him before you decide he should join your family!
SOCIALIZATION, TEMPERAMENT AND TRAINING
Milo is a lot of puppy stuck in a big dog body, and he has no clue how big he is. He is bouncy, enthusiastic, and always ready for whatever is happening next. He greets life head first and heart wide open. With his people, he is affectionate, playful, and deeply engaged.
He currently lives with young children and does well with them, but he would prefer a home with older children where there is less chaos and unpredictability in his environment. He has also been raised alongside his female littermate, and the two have been intentionally managed as individual dogs and not a team. They were crated, trained, walked, and fed independently. While he has an established relationship with her, he has struggled with unfamiliar dogs. Because of this, we are seeking a single-dog home where he can continue to mature without the pressure of navigating new canine relationships.
Milo is an older puppy, which means he is officially entering the doggy teenage stage-also known as the "I forgot everything I've ever learned but I'm still very cute" phase. Think of it as his goofy middle school era. He may test boundaries, get distracted by a leaf blowing across the yard, and have opinions about things he didn't notice before. It's all normal, temporary, and honestly pretty hilarious. With consistency, patience, and fun training sessions, he'll grow right through it and come out the other side an amazing adult dog.
