Riley

The rescue’s notes on Riley

Meet Riley! 
Riley is a 2-year-old, 55 lb Cattle Dog/Lab mix with a heart full of love and a spirit that shines through her special needs. She has hearing challenges. Despite it all, Riley is active, friendly, and incredibly affectionate. She loves walks, cuddle time, and sticking close to her people and doggy pals. Riley is a silly, sleepy, lazy, happy, and loving girl. She's food-motivated (frozen peanut butter Kongs = pure joy!), loves running happy circles in the yard or dog parks, and adores dogs, cats, kids—pretty much everyone. She's a sucker for chest scratches and cuddling under blankets. She may be deaf, she may hate baths and swimming, but she's a wonderfully quirky girl who brings so much love. Once Riley finds her "spot," she sticks to it forever. Riley is house trained, spayed, loves humans and dogs and even puts herself in her crate to nap. Here is what her foster says about Riley: Riley has learned how to sit, lie down, come and no - by using sign language. Also she loves napping in her crate and sleeps wonderfully there through the night. Low maintenance dog. Sits before eating or receiving treats. It would be wonderful for her to have a doggy sibling to love on. Riley needs a fenced-in yard and a patient adopter willing to continue training a deaf dog. In return, she'll give you endless love, loyalty, and joy. If you're looking for a truly special companion—Riley is your girl.
