Milo would love a home in the countryside with a secure garden (this is a must as he chases cars inside the boundary fence) where he has a lot of space to run around. Milo needs a child free home, despite growing up with kids he cannot cope with the noise of babies and is overwhelmed by the noise of a busy 3child household.

He can be a bit standoffish at first, but once he settles in, he’ll confidently explore his space and show off his playful side.
