Our Furry Staff
Hi there, I’m Milo, a Yorkshire Terrier with a big heart and even bigger ears! As The Wise Self’s official furry staff, I take my job seriously, whether offering a wagging tail, snuggling on laps, or being irresistibly cute. My specialties? Stress relief, belly rub requests, and giving the best puppy eyes you’ve ever seen.
When I’m not busy being adorable, you can find me patrolling the clinic halls, making sure everyone feels at ease (or at least giving me a treat). I’m here to remind you that sometimes the best therapy comes in four-legged form!
