Meek but mighty, shy yet silly, Milkshake is a dog that needs a calm, patient family to call his own! With a tragic past, it’s understandable that Milkshake can be quite fearful of new people and places. He’s especially jumpy around fast movements or loud noises and will do best in a quiet household that can watch his body language and know when he needs more space. However, once Milkshake gets to know you (which doesn’t take too long!), you get to see how sweet and goofy he can be! It’s been noted by staff, volunteers, and his foster parent that he is a very good walking companion and is generally curious about other people or dogs. Milkshake is also great at moving away when he’s uncomfortable, so be sure to set him up with a spot where he can go to feel safe and have some “me time”. Although he has lived with other dogs previously, there’s no known history of what that looked like. But your resident dog and Milkshake can have a doggy introduction after you’ve met him to see if they’ll be a good fit for each other! If you’re ready to adopt a wiggly, sweet dog, then shake a leg and say hello to Milkshake today!
