Riley 08-340

Profile

What a heart stealer!!! Riley is a TOTAL sweetheart. He met my resident group and foster Captain "Jack" 08-278 without any problems. He is kid, cat, and doggie approved. Riley is a mix so he is smaller that a purebred but just looks like a miniature Golden and he has the most beautiful greenish gold eyes! Riley is completely housetrained, crate trained, loves to play fetch, not destructive, and as the pictures show, he rides great in the car. If you're interested in making this sweetheart part of your family please contact placement. He won't be around for long!

Come meet Riley at PetCo this Saturday, July 12, in Richfield! Once you look into his eyes, guaranteed, you'll be hooked!!!!!!!!

Riley is still hanging out with the Rochester crew. He's still as sweet as ever and just waiting for that forever family to find him. If you are looking for a young dog but one that is housebroken and past the chewing stage then Riley may be your guy. Contact placement if you would like to meet Riley.

Enjoy the new pictures!

Hello everyone!

Sorry it's been awhile since I've updated Riley's page. We have learned a LOT about his personality in the last couple of weeks so we have a better idea what kind of forever home he needs.

  • Riley is very much a puppy with a TON of energy. He needs a home that will help him burn it off on a daily basis. He loves to play with the other dogs, so a romp at the dogpark would be great for him to burn off a little energy and socialize with the locals. Daily walks or runs are great.
  • Riley learns very quickly but needs obedience classes and lots of reinforcement since he can sometimes be easily distracted because of his puppiness. He loves to be outside but those pesky birds and squirrels taunt him into barking. Let me tell you, the neighbors do not appreciate that at 6:00 am so he needs supervision when outside to remind him to be quiet. He corrects easily, just needs reminding.
  • Riley loves his kennel. He goes in on his own occasionally just to nap. When he sees me getting ready to leave for work in the morning, he'll just stand in there waiting for me to close the door. He is kenneled when I am at work so he is not tempted to be naughty. He sleeps on the floor in my room with the other dogs and is not destructive during the night. I sleep with the door closed though so he doesn't wander.
  • Riley respects baby gates and has learned not to go into the kitchen even though the gate is down now. He has access to all other areas of the house but that the kitchen is my space and my space only.

Here are his latest pictures. If you'd like to meet Riley 08-340 please contact placement!

Riley is doing really well here and having a blast playing with my resident dog, Valentino, and foster Captain "Jack" 08-278. He is a real sweet pup that learns really quickly. Riley decided a few days ago that he would rather kennel up with Tino than by himself. It's funny! When I tell the dogs to kennel, Riley runs into Valentino's kennel and waits for him. He would make a really nice addition to anyone looking for a smaller sized golden. Riley would do really well in a home with another dog, cats, and/or kids. If you're interested in Riley, please contact placement.
