Milo, the Dog of the Day
Name: Milo
Age: One and a half years old
Gender: Male Breed: Golden Retriever
Home: Nixa, Missouri, USA
 
   After my husband and I were married, we decided that we wanted to go and "look" at a litter of Golden retriever puppies and couldn't leave without requesting one, and his name is Milo. My husband worked nights for the first nine months of our marriage so Milo was either with myself or my husband for every hour of everyday. We have both grown so attached to Milo and now consider him to be our child. He goes with us everywhere and each decision we make is based on how it will affect Milo.

    Milo loves to go to the lake and go swimming. He enjoys it so much that he will swim until he is completely exhausted so we started putting a life jacket on him so he can swim until he can't swim anymore and we know he will be safe. He loves to go on car rides and he is the most loving pet you will ever meet. Milo loves company and it won't take long before he wiggles up to you for a scratch behind his ear! Now that my husband is on the day shift, we take Milo to doggie daycare so he can spend time with his dog friends. Doggie daycare is the best place ever invented for dogs and dog lovers! Milo enjoys bedtime when he can sleep in the middle of us and has to be touching both my husband and myself before he falls asleep.
