My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hi. I'm Riley.
My foster Mom tells everyone what a good boy I am. Mom says I'm one of the best dog's she's ever fostered from PLL. We live on a farm, and I enjoy riding with Mom to check on her goats. I'm crate-trained and potty -trained which makes Mom happy. I've only had a few accidents, usually around 7-10 PM, because sometimes my family gets preoccupied with family time, and we forget to go outside from time to time. I am crate trained-however, in the morning sometimes I will let you know that I need to go outside to potty. I will alert you with whimpering and a short howl instead of leaving an accident in my cage. Don't worry though, I don't get up too early. I normally get up around 7:00-7:30. Also, if you take me outside to go to the bathroom and put me back in my crate, I will willingly rest longer if you're not ready to get up. I'm a laid-back guy who loves to hang out on the couch with you and go on adventures. I like children and get along well with cats and other dogs. I was scared of cats at first, but not anymore. I will chase a cat if it runs from me, because my foster brother showed me some bad tricks, but I will stop when my foster Mom calls my name and says, "NO" and approaches me. I get along great with other dogs but will stand my ground if they aren't kind to me. I'm laid back boy!

My adoption fee of $400 includes up-to-date vaccinations, dewormer, and heartworm/flea prevention. Plus, a microchip that is already registered to you! What more could you ask for?
