If you ever looked up the word resilience, you might just find
Millie’s picture smiling back at you. This remarkable lady has faced
more than her fair share of challenges and emerged with an unshakable
spirit and an incredibly loving heart. Millie was found roaming the
streets of Brooklyn, likely abandoned by a breeder once she was no
longer “useful.” She bears a few old injuries including to her ear and
leg but she wears them with grace, giving her a distinguished, classy
charm that only adds to her character.

Don’t let her age fool you, Millie still brings the heat. She
regularly gives young Malinois a run for their money and often
outplays a 3-year-old male in a game of fetch. Ball is life for
Millie, and she’ll happily keep playing as long as you can keep up.
She has the street smarts of a true Brooklyn girl and the heart of
Dolly Parton. Millie is currently thriving in a foster home with
multiple dogs of different breeds, sizes, and ages, including a
Malinois, a Basset Hound, and two Pit Bulls. She gets along well with
other dogs, is friendly with strangers, and does great with kids.

Millie has basic obedience training, does well in a crate, and is
comfortable both indoors and outdoors. She’s a total people lover that
expects hugs, gentle nudges for pets, and instant devotion. Anyone who
meets her falls in love almost immediately. She would do best in a
home familiar with the needs of a Malinois and willing to manage some
minor medical care, such as monitoring her ear, which can be prone to
infections. In return, Millie offers boundless enthusiasm, unwavering
loyalty, and a whole lot of love.

Millie is proof that age is just a number and that an experienced,
energetic dog can bring more joy than you ever imagined.

Millie is currently fostered in New Jersey and looking for her forever home. Pup cups required.
