Millie
Millie was found outside a friend’s house in San Andrés Huayápam, doing her best to care for a litter of seven hungry pups. She was clearly devoted to keeping them safe despite being out on the street.
Thanks to a joint effort with Los Lomitos de Fer, Millie and her puppies were brought to safety. All seven have now found homes – and now it’s Millie’s turn.
We think Millie might be a mix of black lab and bully breed (with maybe a little seal thrown in for good measure). She’s incredibly loyal and sticks close by, whether she’s on or off the lead. She’s learning to enjoy affection, is picking up basic commands quickly, and will leap happily into the car as soon as the door opens.
She’s got a delightfully quirky side too – at mealtimes, she runs in happy circles, drooling with enthusiasm. It’s impossible not to smile. She’s currently in foster care with other dogs and cats and gets along beautifully with everyone.
It’s no secret that black dogs like Millie often get overlooked in adoption listings – a frustrating reality known as Black Dog Syndrome. But Millie has so much to offer the right person or family: she’s affectionate, adaptable, and ready to be someone’s loyal companion.
She’s around 2.5 years old (as of July 2025), spayed, dewormed and fully vaccinated – and ready for her own loving forever home.
