Riley is an approximately 8-year-old spayed female Australian Cattle Dog mix who weighs around 50 pounds—and she’s as beautiful inside as she is out. Though her past wasn’t always kind, Riley has shown incredible resilience and a gentle heart that’s ready for love. After being rescued from an unkind situation, she’s spent the past few years with someone who gave her safety and care—but due to health issues, he can no longer keep her. Now, Riley is hoping to find a forever home where she can finally rest easy and feel truly cherished.

Why She’s the Ultimate Faithful Companion
🐾 Excellent leash manners—loves her long walks
🚽 House-trained and reliable about going potty outside
💖 Has a sweet, gentle soul once she feels safe
👵 Bonds deeply with women after slow introductions
🦷 Healthy teeth and overall good condition for her age

What She’s Looking For
✔️ A calm, patient adopter who can help her continue healing from her past
✔️ A female-led home (she’s fearful of men) where she can feel secure and loved
✔️ A home without other pets—Riley prefers to be the only dog and cat-free
✔️ Someone who enjoys quiet companionship, cozy evenings, and simple walks

Riley has been through so much, but her heart still overflows with love to give. All she needs now is someone kind and patient to show her that the world can be gentle. If you’re looking for a loyal, mature companion who will adore you endlessly, Riley is waiting to meet you.
