I’ve always been someone who believes a dog is for life. Taking on Mylo six months ago was something I did fully believing that. Unfortunately, due to some unexpected health issues, my situation has changed and I’m no longer able to care for him in the way he truly deserves. This isn’t something that’s likely to improve, and may get harder over time, so I feel it’s kinder — for both of us — to find him the right home sooner rather than later.
I’m absolutely not in a rush to say goodbye. He’s a beautiful soul, and it really matters to me that he ends up somewhere that’s right for him.
So, a bit about this very handsome doggo…
Mylo came from a local breeder and was born in April 2025.
He’s toilet trained, although he’s not the best at telling you when he needs to go out. I usually take him out 4–5 times a day. If he needs to go, he’ll either dash straight for the door… or stand there staring at you like you’re a massive pleb for even suggesting it. Either way, he knows the house isn’t the place to go. Very occasional accidents can happen, but he usually gives some warning beforehand.
His temperament is genuinely fantastic. He’s an absolute joy to have around. He’s quite independent and doesn’t like being overwhelmed with constant attention. He’ll happily come over for cuddles when you get home and enjoys affection in smaller chunks, but when he’s had enough, he’ll wander off and settle on his own. He’s really good at setting his own boundaries.
I’ve never seen even the smallest hint of real aggression from him. He loves play fighting and a bit of rough and tumble, but he’s excellent at knowing when to stop. It’s always very clearly play, never anything nasty.
Around other dogs, he is very energetic and absolutely loves to play. He can be a bit overwhelming for some dogs and does need managing in those situations. That said, he has never reacted aggressively — if another dog barks or nips, he’ll roll over and submit rather than react.
In terms of home environment, ideally Mylo would suit a house with a garden. That’s definitely my preference. However, if someone is around a lot during the day and not working full-time, there may be other suitable options. I honestly think he could thrive in either a busy household or a quieter one — I’ve seen him cope really well with both. The key thing is that he’s allowed space when he chooses to step away.
I’d feel very comfortable with him around both younger and older children. I’m a foster carer and have a background in policing, so I’ve seen him around a wide range of people and situations. He’s brilliant with adults and has been fantastic with everyone he’s come into contact with in public. The only thing to be mindful of is his energy — when he gets excited, he can be a bit ditzy. He doesn’t mean to knock into people; he’s just still very puppy-brained, growing into his size, with big paws and slightly questionable coordination at times.
I work education hours, so I’m usually out during the day, though I often have foster children around at home as well (not always consistently). This suits Mylo really well. He’s happy doing his own thing during the day and then enjoys attention and company in the evenings.
For walks, I use a halti that goes around his face, which will be included. All of his belongings and bits I have for him will come with him to help make the transition into a new home easier. He’s enthusiastic on walks rather than a hard puller — more “oh look, sniff this, what’s over there?” than dragging you down the road. On the halti, he doesn’t pull at all and it’s honestly been fantastic for him.
He knows the basics training-wise. He can sit and has good recall — in open spaces, I’ve never had issues with him not coming back. The big caveat is other dogs. Once they’re around, his enthusiasm takes over and his listening skills disappear a bit. This really kicked in around six months old. Before that, he was spot on, but now he’s just very excited by other dogs, so that’s something a new owner would need to continue working on.
He’s had his first round of vaccinations, and depending on how long he remains with me, I’d intend to get his second round around his birthday. He’s had a clean bill of health from the vets with no issues at all.
He isn’t neutered yet, but if I were keeping him long term, it’s something I would be considering — his interest in other dogs is… enthusiastic.
This isn’t an easy decision, and I just want to be absolutely sure whoever takes him on is ready to love him properly. I’m more than happy to answer questions or have a chat to see if he’d be the right fit.
