My story

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

WANTED: A Forever Family Who Won’t Give Up on Me

Name: Riley
Status: Dog friendly | Cat friendly  

Hi, I’m Riley, and I’ve been let down more times than any pup should in such a short life. The first time, I was abandoned because a new baby came into the home. The second time, my owner left the state… and left me behind.

After that, I ended up living in the woods behind a gas station. The kind workers there made sure I had food and checked on me, but I still didn’t have what I needed most—a family who wouldn’t leave me.

Now I’m safe at the shelter, finally getting the care I deserve, and I’m dreaming of forever. Despite everything, I’m still a gentle, sweet boy who gets along with dogs, cats, and people.

Here’s why I might just be your perfect match:
✔ Dog friendly
✔ Cat friendly
✔ Sweet, forgiving, and full of love
✔ Resilient survivor with a big heart

I’ve been abandoned twice already, but I haven’t given up hope. I know my real forever family is still out there—someone who will finally choose me and never let me go. ❤️

More about this rescue

We are a small group of animal lovers dedicated to finding homes for as many animals as possible.
