Meet RILEY! This darling 10 month old male border collie is a bundle of joy, energy and fun! He gets along very well with his foster siblings, plays nonstop with all of the youngsters here at his foster home and is respectful of resident feline, PuckleCat. RILEY is crate trained and sleeps quietly overnight. He is housebroken having never had an accident in his foster home. He is learning to walk nicely on leash and curls up quietly at our feet in the evenings when we are relaxing or on the computer.


RILEY isn't a barker and hasn't shown any bad habits such as digging or chewing on anything except the Kong's and deer antlers provided by his foster parents. RILEY is affectionate and loves a good ear scratch or tummy tickle. This handsome, sweetheart is a slim 40 lbs. He is not food aggressive or toy possessive and takes food gently from your hand.


RILEY is learning his name and once he was told no jumping on the furniture he has stayed off like the good boy he is. Our precious RILEY has his rucksack packed and set by the door awaiting his forever family to come and find him!  His lucky new owner could be you!


RILEY is micro-chipped, neutered, heart worm negative and on preventative, and up to date on vaccinations.

RILEY is being fostered in Auburn in Placer County, California.
