Milo's Story

Meet Milo: Your Sensitive, Sweater-Wearing Shadow Adoption fee: $400 Hi, I'm Milo! I'm a fawn male Doberman (born November 2024) with cropped but adorably floppy ears and a docked tail. I'm handsome, athletic, and look fantastic in a sweater when it's cold, which I fully expect you to provide. A Little About Me: Personality: I'm playful, loving, and high-energy, but I also have a sensitive soul. I came from a neglect situation where I spent most of my time crated in a garage, so new situations can make me nervous. Because of that, I thrive with structure, routine, and calm leadership. I love my people deeply, like, Velcro-level deeply. I want nothing more than to make you happy and be loved on. I just need a little time to warm up to new humans. Once I trust you? I'm yours. I get along great with female dogs (I have a lady friend in my foster home now), but absolutely no male dogs for me. My Story: My early life wasn't what it should have been. I didn't get the stability or care I deserved, and it left me with some anxiety. Luckily I was saved by my foster family, but they know that they are not the best home for me long term so they reached out to the rescue to find the home from that is. The good news? I'm already improving with consistency and patience. I'm currently on medication to help manage my anxiety, and with the right home, I can continue to relax and grow. Manners and Training: I'm a quick learner and already know how to sit and ring a bell at the door when I need to go outside (yes, I'm that smart). I walk beautifully on a gentle leader and am not reactive to dogs or people on walks. Now for full transparency: I have strong fears around nail trims and ear cleanings. I will shake and may nip if you rush me. This is clearly tied to bad past experiences. I must wear a soft muzzle during those activities, and they need to be handled slowly and calmly. Outside of that specific scenario, I do not have aggression toward people. I do best in a home with a strict routine, clear structure, and calm, confident leadership. A quieter environment will help me feel safe and steady. Because I need predictability, I'm not a match for homes with small children. Special Considerations: I need to live with female dogs only, and introductions should always be thoughtful and structured. Ongoing anxiety management will be part of my life, and grooming tasks like nail trims and ear cleanings must be handled patiently and safely with a muzzle. With the right leadership and consistency, I absolutely thrive — but I am not a “wing it and hope for the best” kind of dog. Health and Vetting: I'm neutered, microchipped, up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative, and negative for intestinal parasites. Physically healthy and ready to go. Why You'll Love Me: Underneath my nerves is a deeply loyal, affectionate boy who wants nothing more than to belong. Give me structure, patience, and consistency, and I will give you my whole heart. Plus, I look extremely cute in sweaters, which is obviously a major bonus. I'm not the loudest dog in the room, I'm the one quietly choosing my person. Maybe it's you.

Georgia Doberman Rescue's Adoption Policy

Anyone interested in adopting must complete and submit an application to GDR for review. All potential adopters are thoroughly screened, interviewed and all references are checked. We also do a home visit to ensure that our rescues are provided a safe, healthy environment. Dobermans must never be chained or tied outside, and must always be primarily inside dogs. All adopted dogs must be kept current on vaccinations and heartworm preventative. Adopters are required to keep GDR informed as to current address, phone number and/or any change in home or situation that could affect the adopted Doberman. If the adopter cannot keep the adopted dog in the specified manner for any reason, GDR must be notified and has discretion in reclaiming the dog. Adoption Application Please fill out the app completely and send it back to GDR at adopt@georgiadobermanrescue.com. Make sure to follow all instructions as if anything is missing, it will slow down the application process. Photos of your home are required and must be submitted along with your application. We offer our adoption application as a PDF or Word document Please visit our website to download http://www.georgiadobermanrescue.com/adopt/ Adoption Process Step 1 – Completely fill out the GDR application. The application allows us to get to know your home and family situation and find the best match for you. When you submit your application, please also attach pictures of your home, inside and out, fence, etc. Please note that if you rent your home a signed and dated letter from your landlord or management company stating their approval of your decision to adopt a Doberman, must accompany your application. Step 2 – Review and reference Checks GDR will review your application and make the appropriate reference checks to veterinarians and if needed, personal references. Please be sure that you call your vet’s office and personal references and let them know that a GDR representative will be calling/emailing and that they have your permission to discuss relevant issues with us. Step 3 – Home Visit and Meet and Greet Once GDR has reviewed the application and completed the appropriate reference checks and if we feel that your home would be an excellent home for a Doberman, we will contact you to schedule a home visit. The home visit is an important part of our adoption process as this is where we get to know you and your family better, see your lifestyle and get a feel for how our rescued Doberman would fit in with your family and other pets. When possible, we will bring along or schedule a meet and greet for the dog in which you are interested or we feel is the best fit. Step 4 – Board Review GDR (board members) will review the above and make a decision. We will notify applicants regardless of our decision. If you are approved, we will then complete the appropriate adoption paperwork and finalize the adoption. When possible, one of our board members will meet with adopters to finalize the adoption in person. When you adopt from GDR, the relationship doesn’t end there. We love to keep up with our Dobermans and their families. We want to be an ongoing resource for our adoptive families throughout the years. We want your Doberman to be a well loved, healthy and cherished member of your family, and we will do everything we can to ensure that.
