I just wanted to tell you a little bit about our girl Riley. Riley is our 7 and a half month old black-and-tan Coonhound/Black Lab cross. Riley was rescued from under an abandoned house along with her two siblings at the age of 6 weeks, Unfortunately her mom was too skittish and they were unable to rescue her at the time. Riley and her brother and sister made their way to a foster home to get cleaned up and fattened up as they were skinny, dirty and in a sad state.
We found Riley on kijiji of all places and instantly fell in love, especially once we saw her with her adorable Coonhound ears and waggly tail, just full of love. Now Riley is growing every day and loves to lounge on the couch and her absolute favorite thing to do is go to the off leash dog park and run with all the other dogs. You can tell she loves it by the big grin on her face as she gets all the other dogs to chase her.
Riley has found her forever home, no doubt about it!
