Great dog needs great home

By Josh Grossberg on November 17, 2008 7:07 AM | | Comments (0) |
I read this item on LA Observed, which links to another item from Gustvo Arellano, the author of the Ask A Mexican column at the OC Weekly.

So the information is third-hand, but basically, a very handsome dog needs a home. Wouldn't it be awesome if somebody reading this blog found a home for the Milo?

Milo is a great Dane, which of course are big dogs, but based on my experience with them, are very sweet and gentle dogs.

Here's what Gustavo had to say about the dog:

I've taken care of this wonderful dog many times over the past couple of years--class act all the way. However, current living conditions (in a P.O. Box) do not allow me from accepting Milo, which I would've done in a heartbeat, which means that if there are no takers, Milo goes to the pound like hundreds of his fellow dogs and loyal-opposition cats have done recently due to the mortgage mess.

There is only one real problem with Milo, as evidenced by the picture above: he's a Great Dane. Everyone is either freaked out by his size or mesmerized, but the only challenge his size brings is cleaning up after him--carry a shovel. But look at his face--Milo is as timid and shy in real life as the picture shows...He's potty-trained, good in an apartment setting, and needs love, long walks, and someone willing to play with him after said walks for about half-an-hour. Otherwise, Milo just sleeps the rest of the day.

If you're interested, go here. Then let me know how it turns out so I can blog about it and get all the credit.

About the Bloggers

Daily Breeze reporter Donna Littlejohn has shared her homes with a succession of wonderful, funny, and occasionally difficult canines -- Muffin, Fritz, Ellie, Mercy, Pilgrim and now Cowboy, an Australian shepherd-border collie, and Tess, a border collie. From strong-willed terriers to weirdly obsessed Australian shepherds, they've invaded her world with boundless energy, wet noses, muddy paws and soggy tennis balls. But they've really brought so much more than that -- like laughter and joy, some unexpected life lessons, and more than a few tears along the way.
