Foxhound / Mixed (short coat) : : Female (spayed) : : Young
Meet Millie! Millie is a young adult (around 2 years). She loves people of all ages, and their dogs; she is very outgoing. Millie's foster mom describes her as a happy-go-lucky dog. When out in public, Millie often seeks people out to say "hi," and she especially loves kids! One of Millie's most adorable qualities is that she loves to give hugs. She will gently put her front paws on you, and lean in for a hug. She is very loving and gentle and will often hug strangers at Petco for minutes at a time. It is very sweet and people are drawn to her, the same way that she's drawn to them! Millie is not afraid of anything and she loves to go on adventures. Her foster mom has taken her to Shenandoah, Calvert Cliffs, Washington's Birthplace, Caledon State Park and more, and Millie loves every second of it! Millie is young, and she does best if she has a walk every day - even one mile is enough to put her in nap mode, but she has enough stamina to go on full day hikes. Millie loves to play with other dogs, but she is also fine without a dog in the home. She is excellent in her crate and often sleeps in there with the door open because it's comfortable - and she's hoping that dinner will come if she waits in her crate ;) We can't say enough good things about Millie. She really is a great dog and would be a good fit in any environment. If you are up for an adventure with an amazingly sweet dog, please consider adding Millie to your family!

We strive to match the personality and needs of our foster dogs and cats to a family who will best fulfill those needs. If a family is not approved for a particular pet, it does not mean they will not be a good pet owner, it just means that their needs and the needs of the particular pet don’t match. We do not adopt on a “first come, first serve” basis. Once your application is received, the application process begins. We will review your application, check your references, check with your vet (if there are other animals in the household), speak to a landlord (if you rent), and arrange for a home visit. Once your application is pre-approved (meaning, we don't see any red flags based on our preliminary review of your application), the applicant may be invited to meet their potential family member at a location convenient to the foster family (usually at the King George Petco). Adoptions will NOT take place at the meet & greet, this is just a chance for us to get to know you and for you to spend time with our animals. After the meet and greet, we will ask that you spend some time thinking over your decision and we will do the same. After the application review process is complete (meet & greet with animal, home visit, reference/vet checks, background check, etc.), if all is acceptable to both adopter and KGARL and we all agree to move forward, we will schedule a day/time to finalize the adoption. The adopter will be asked to sign the final paperwork and we will collect the adoption fee (cash, check, or paypal are all acceptable). At this time, you can either pick up your pet, or schedule a time to do so. Adopters will be required to schedule an appointment with their veterinarian of choice within 15 days of taking your new pet home. Please note that we do not do same day adoptions. If you are applying for a popular animal (such as puppies, small dogs, or special breeds), it can take several days for our volunteers to reach a decision that is best for the animal. We understand that it's difficult to wait, but please don't email us multiple times a day to check on the status of your application. We are a very small group and the same people that are reviewing your application are also replying to hundreds of emails and Facebook messages. We are all volunteers and have full time jobs outside of KGARL, so any time spent replying to emails/messages is time we are not reviewing your application. All Adoptions Include: Adoption Fees (unless otherwise noted in the pet's description): Dogs: See pet's description |
