More: Milo is our beloved rescue dog. He was originally adopted from the local pound by his previous owners. When he kept running away from his home and coming to our house, though, we decided to adopt him as our own and have loved every day with him since. Milo is so smart and so clever that my husband and I are sure he understands every word that we are saying and that he is practically human. He is a silent, strong, independent type. However, in spite of those qualities, he has a profound love for his pack (our four other dogs) and my husband and me. He is always loyal, loving, and watchful of his family, and we cannot imagine our lives without him.
