My personality

My story

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

Riley is a fun-loving happy dog that is a joy to be around! He is a big guy, at 2 years old, just over 70 pounds at a healthy weight. Not only is Riley a great looking dog, he is super sweet and very playful. Given his size, he will be best suited to a home with active adopters capable of handling large dogs. Riley is learning good leash manners and is eager to please. Physical and mental exercise is good for dogs like him. He is in good health, neutered, microchipped, and fully vaccinated. A perfect dog deserves a perfect home! So we are seeking a home with an active adopter who has the ability to work from home or be at home the majority of the day to spend time with this amazing dog! A home with a fenced, secure yard will give him room to run and play securely. Riley is not well suited to small children or smaller dogs who could be upset by his enthusiasm, but will fit nicely into many other homes.

Riley is being cared for by C.A.R.E. The adoption process starts with your email to carerescue@aol.com or Petfinder inquiry. After we receive it, we will email you our prescreening questionnaire. Your answers will help us determine that your home and lifestyle matches the needs of the dog and our adoption criteria. Once determined, we will set up a private meeting with you and the dog at a park near our private kennel just east of Richmond. After meeting the dog and determining that it matches your preferences for a pet, we will accept your application. A home visit by one of our trained volunteers is required for all adoptions, and we will speak with your vet to ensure that you are a responsible pet owner.
