Meet Riley, a beautiful, tricolor Cavalier who is 1 ½ years old (born 08/17/2023). His loving mom could no longer care for him due to her own battle with cancer. She bravely and unselfishly surrendered him to Cavalier Rescue USA where she knew he would find the loving and caring forever home that she could no longer provide. Riley came into Rescue with tons of toys that showed how loved he was.
Riley was an only dog before coming into rescue. In foster care, he loves, loves, loves to run, romp and play with other sweet Cavaliers! He adores playing chase with another dog or chasing the ball (which he may or may not return). He does not mind sharing his toys with his furry foster family, although there is sometime a “look what I have, and you don’t” invitation to play! He will play ball or keep away with any person for as long as they can last, and then he is content to snuggle on your lap or next to you on the couch or chair for a rest. He loves to cuddle.
Riley had tummy issues when he came to Cavalier Rescue USA. Initially he was infested with roundworms. After they were cleared up, he continued to have stomach issues. He is doing well on a highly digestible prescription dog food for sensitive stomachs. He is in good health otherwise. Riley does need to lose a couple of pounds. Riley is fully potty trained and has had no accidents during foster care since his tummy issues have been resolved.
Riley is accustomed to a lot of attention. He will become very attached to his new human family and want to stay close to them. And so, it is important that Riley’s forever home will have human family that will spend a lot of time with him and is home most of the day. He would also love to have an active, small, friendly canine companion. Riley will charge out an open door for an adventure if given a chance so young children are not recommended in his forever home. Riley will give his new family unconditional love, playful joy, and warm snuggles throughout the day and night.
