Riley

This is Riley! She is a pure bred German Shepherd who is ready to give your family all the love. She is almost two years old and loves all things water, tennis ball, crinkly and squeaky. She loves to play with other dogs and is always down for a game of fetch. Unfortunately we are needing to rehome because our second child is very allergic to dogs and we definitely do not have the time available that Riley needs/deserves.
