Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Riley is a sweet, curious puppy with a big heart and boundless puppy energy.

Riley is affectionate, gives plenty of puppy kisses, and enjoys cuddles after playtime. Personality & Skills: Very social and enjoys meeting new people Playful and active — needs regular exercise and mental stimulation Food-motivated and quick to learn basic commands Crate and House Trained Loves toys, sniffing adventures, and short hikes/walks Not a big fan of the car yet, but that may change. Good fit for: Active individuals or families who can provide daily exercise and training Homes open to continued puppy socialization and training classes Families with older children over 10 May do well with a confident dog playmate after proper introductions Health & Care: Up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccinations and deworming Microchipped and will need to be neutered,but can be done in the coming months if local. Will benefit from ongoing positive-reinforcement training and socialization Adoption Fee: $275 Adoption info: If you’re ready to give Riley a loving, active home and help him grow into a well-trained companion, the first step is filling out an application Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.Interested in this animal? The first step is an application, which can be completed at www.cvrrescue.org/adoption-applications/. The adoption fee helps cover a portion of the care provided for our animals, including spay/neuter, microchip, heartworm testing for dogs, FeLV/FIV combo testing for cats, deworming, age-appropriate vaccines (including rabies vaccine), and any medical care received while in our care. All cats and dogs are on flea/tick and parasite prevention for the duration of foster care. Notes about puppies: Adopters can expect a new puppy to have accidents, chew things they shouldn't, and have other normal, energetic puppy issues until they are trained, including jumping, mouthing, and general youthful naughtiness. If you experience puppy issues, please feel free to contact us; we’re happy to offer guidance. Also, if a puppy is a mixed breed, we cannot guarantee an adult weight. If your residence has weight restrictions or if you’re looking for a specific adult weight, we don't recommend applying for a mixed-breed puppy. We also offer rehoming services for pets currently owned by individuals. In these cases, we list the animal as a courtesy to the owner, and the animal is not currently in the care of CVRR, such that we can make no representation or guarantee of the animal’s behavior, demeanor, or health assessment. All information listed for a courtesy-posted animal is provided by the current owner and should be verified by any potential adopter. CVRR is a nonprofit organization. We have no paid staff, and all applications are reviewed and processed by our volunteers. Please be patient and understand that it may take 7-14 days to process your application, check your references, and gather follow-up info. You can expedite the process by providing accurate phone numbers and email addresses for your vet and landlord references, and by answering each question fully. Once your application is approved, we will schedule a meet-and-greet to see if the animal picks you, too. If it seems the adoption will be a good match for all, we will collect the adoption fee and complete the adoption contract. CVRR is a NO KILL rescue organization, and we have a LIFETIME COMMITMENT to all of our animals. If for any reason the adoption does not work out, the animal must be returned to CVRR. We will reevaluate the animal and choose a new home based on the best fit for it. July 16, 2026, 7:07 pm
