Description:
Animal Information: I would like to introduce you to Riley, who will be joining us from Eastern Washington along with his two brothers. Riley is a 11-week-old Cattle Dog mix from an accidental litter. When our rescue partner reached out for help in placing some of the puppies we couldn't say no. The brothers are waiting for their freedom ride to Bothell, They are scheduled to arrive on St. Patrick's Day, March 17, 2026. Foster Profile: Meet Riley. Aside from his adorable markings and light-colored eyes, he is exceptionally intelligent and gets along well with all my animals (two cats and a dog). He has a gentle and loving personality with the perfect amount of playfulness. He listens when he’s told not to do something and even likes to fetch. For being only 10 weeks old, he is doing very well with potty training; as long as he is taken out, he goes potty outside every time with very few accidents. He is now used to being on a leash in my yard, and I have successfully got him used to his crate at night and for about 2–3 hours during the day. Honestly, he will make a phenomenal housemate. From what I can tell, he would do well with any home that has time to continue his training, though I don't think he's ready to be left in a crate for longer periods while he is so young. Having raised my own dogs from puppies and helped multiple family members with training, I can confidently say he is truly one in a million. He is a great little guy and I will miss him a lot! We are looking for a home with a securely fenced yard and family willing to continue is training.
