Miles's Story

Meet Miles!<br/>At 25 pounds and 2 years old, this sweet girl is a bundle of enthusiasm wrapped up in the perfect medium-sized package. She's the best of both worlds: she loves slow, cozy mornings, enjoys active days filled with walks and adventure, and is always ready to end the evening with couch snuggles.<br/><br/>Miles is incredibly friendly with both people and dogs. She greets everyone like a friend and spreads joy wherever she goes. She's fully potty trained (with a bladder of steel!), crate trained, walks nicely on leash, and takes treats ever so gently. Car rides? No problem-she's a perfect passenger. When it's playtime, tug-of-war is her absolute favorite, and she gives it her all! She does well with older kids but may be a bit too enthusiastic for little ones.<br/><br/>Miles thrives on routine and consistency. She's been working with a trainer and comes with plenty of helpful tips to continue her progress, especially around putting on her harness and managing the occasional mischievous moment. As a Schnauzer/Cattle Dog/Chihuahua mix, she's naturally curious and clever, with strong instincts to sniff, explore, problem-solve, and "dissect" her toys. She'll do best with an adopter who appreciates her smart, driven nature and can provide regular enrichment and exercise.<br/><br/>What Miles Needs to Thrive:<br/>- Daily Exercise: At least two 20+ minute walks, hikes, or runs per day, with plenty of time for sniffing and exploring. She would also love extra running or playtime in a fenced yard or park, she needs a chance to sprint!<br/>- Daily Enrichment: Independent activities like puzzle toys, treat scavenger hunts, meals in a Kong, and safe chewing outlets. She also benefits from dedicated interactive play such as tug-of-war or games that simulate stalking and hunting (like using a flirt pole).<br/><br/>To be her very best self, Miles needs a steady, confident leader who uses positive reinforcement and provides structure, guidance, and plenty of love. In return, she'll give you endless affection, loyalty, and joyful energy every single day. <br/><br/>If you are interested in Miles, click Apply for Adoption!
