Riley's Story

Meet Riley!<br/>Riley is a playful, energetic pup who’s already starting to respond to her name. She absolutely loves toys and running around the yard, making her a great match for an active home. That said, she’s just as happy to curl up with you for a cozy nap after she’s burned off some energy.<br/>She’s currently working on potty training. Riley does very well in her crate and hasn’t had any accidents there, but when given full freedom in the house, she’s still learning and may need some supervision and consistency. She isn’t a big fan of being crated and will cry for much of the time, so she would do best in a home where someone is around more often to keep her company and help her feel secure.<br/>Riley gets along well with other dogs and enjoys their company, whether male or female. She’s also been curious but gentle with cats, showing no signs of aggression. Her sweet personality shines through in her love for giving lots of enthusiastic kisses!<br/>She’s had a couple of walks and is off to a good start with leash training. While she doesn’t mind passing people, she can be a bit unsure around other dogs and may bark, so she’ll benefit from continued socialization and training in that area.<br/>Overall, Riley is a loving, affectionate puppy with lots of energy and even more love to give. With a little patience and training, she’ll make a wonderful companion in the right home. 🐾<br/>She’s a mini Aussie and about 3.5-4 months old. <br/>Applications can be completed from our webpage at causeforpaws.net<br/>Adoption fee $400<br/>Adoption radius within 100 miles

Cause For Paws's Adoption Policy
In order to encourage folks to rescue homeless Orphans, we try to make the rescue experience as non-invasive and pleasant as possible. First, an application is completed prior to meeting any of our orphans. Since we do not have a shelter, it’s important to be able to pre-qualify folks that will be making appointments with fosters, to meet any of our orphans. We do a vet check, to verify all current or previous dogs are up to date on vaccines, heartworm testing, heartworm prevention, and are either spayed or neutered. We may also contact references listed on the application when there is no previous vet information, or where more information is needed. We’ll then contact you to arrange a home visit, which is merely an opportunity to ask and answer any questions regarding our process. Since most of our orphans have already been in a situation that was not right for them, we want to do whatever it takes to allow them to succeed. It is not our intent to set a dog or a family up for failure.
