American Staffordshire Terrier Dogs Available for Adoption

 I'm Riley: Your New Best Friend! 🐾

Hi! My name is Riley, and I’m a 6-month-old puppy with a joyful, playful spirit who is so ready to find my forever family! I’m a curious guy who is still learning the ropes, and I’ve been lucky to have my foster siblings teaching me how to be the best dog I can be. I’m an active boy who loves a good game of fetch, playing with my foster brother, or staying busy with my favorite toys—and I definitely get an extra wag in my tail whenever it’s mealtime!

After being left at a park by my first humans, I'm working on building my confidence when my foster pawrents leave the house. Every day when they return, I get a little less worried they will leave me like the others and my confidence is growing.

After a fun day of play, my favorite way to wind down is snuggling up in a warm blankie right next to you. There’s nothing that makes me feel more safe and loved than being close to my people. My foster parents tell me I’m such a "good boy," and they’re always petting my velvet-soft ears and telling me I have the sweetest, most handsome face.

I have so much love to give and I’m ready to be your loyal, lifelong companion. Please come and meet me soon!

Yours truly,

Riley 💙🐾
