A follow up piece will air soon on KGO channel 7 News.
Recently featured on KGO/Channel 7 News, Anthem was found by a deputy sheriff and a real estate agent, when they entered a foreclosed home. Abandoned by his owner, he was so thin that, even after two weeks at the shelter, he was still too underweight to be neutered.
He is now living happy, free, and well fed at the Milo Sanctuary!
However, we still need to give him his second HEARTWORM treatment.
THEN he will be ready for R&R in a new home! Heartworm treatments are expensive.
We hope to find Anthem a loving home to recover in, and get the TLC he needs and craves!

***************************************************
In this economy, more animals are being starved or abandoned.
Please donate towards the care of these animals, like our new arrival Sasha, an abandoned Arabian horse, who needed to gain about 100 pounds when she arrived! NOW she is GORGEOUS!!
Sasha is a very nice female Arabian/Quarterhorse cross who stands 14 hands high and weighs just 730 lbs. She may have had two colts in the past. She has had her hooves trimmed recently. She is halter broke and loads very easily into a trailer. She is a very sweet horse and just needs some additional weight so she can fill out and be healthy. She would make a great trail riding horse for a youngster or small adult. Sasha has been saddled and sat twice recently so she appears to be able to be ridden, once she puts some weight on and is checked out by a vet etc.
Sasha, right before her arrival from Del Norte. Sasha, at Milo Sanctuary, May 2009!

GIVE a gift of a comfy bed to a rescued dog.
A feel good gift for all!
Get a dog off the floor. Cot-beds needed at both Milo Marin (medium/small sizes), as well as for the sanctuary (large).
Now, more than ever, we need your help and support! Milo supports a population of ~200 animals at our sanctuary, and we aim to rescue and place at least 1000 animals annually from high-kill shelters - WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT!
We are working to raise over $200,000 in donations in 2009, to continue to maintain a
Bay Area presence, and to keep rescuing and adopting out animals at risk in California's animal shelters. In this recession, the fate of many animals is getting worse!
We need a local presence not only to continue to save lives, but to bring attention to our Mendocino County sanctuary, and the animals and upkeep there. Maintaining a No-Kill rescue is extra costly. We offer animals a second, and third, chance at life. Please help!
Please see our donation page to make an online donation, or for information on mailing in your donation. Your gift of $100 will spay, test and vaccinate a cat, or neuter, vaccinate and test a dog for Heartworm, so that they can be adopted!
Consider sponsoring a sanctuary dog or cat, or fostering . . . Check out the animals.
We have a few older sanctuary dogs that would love to have a cozy place, and more people time! Click here to see the Sponsorship Application.
Please consider joining our Friends of Milo monthly giving program, for an easy and effective way to provide yearlong support for our animals. Sign up to become a member.
Or e-mail info@milofoundation.org for information on how to sign up today!
Check our website daily for new arrivals and updates!
Volunteers are needed for the MILO MARIN adoption days, as well as mobile adoptions in the East Bay. Fostering a dog, puppies, a cat, or a group of kittens, also really helps save lives!
Volunteers are needed for organizational tasks such as data entry, phones, follow up, and more.
Email info@milofoundation.org, for more information, or to sign up to volunteer!

The mission of The Milo Foundation is to rescue adoptable at-risk animals, match them to homes best suited to provide lifetime care, rehabilitate those who need it, offer sanctuary to those who are not placed, and educate the public about responsible pet guardianship, including spay/neuter.
