Cattle Dog and Labrador Retriever Dogs Available for Adoption

Meet Riley!


Riley is a 2-year-old, 55 lb Cattle Dog/Lab mix with a heart full of love and a spirit that shines through her special needs. She experiences seizures, and may have hearing challenges. Despite it all, Riley is active, friendly, and incredibly affectionate. She loves walks, cuddle time, and sticking close to her people.

Riley is a silly, sleepy, lazy, happy, and loving girl. She’s food-motivated (frozen peanut butter Kongs = pure joy!), loves running happy circles in the yard or dog park, and adores dogs, cats, kids—pretty much everyone. She’s a sucker for chest scratches and cuddling under blankets.

She may be cross-eyed, she may be deaf, she may hate baths and swimming, but she’s a wonderfully quirky girl who brings so much love. Once Riley finds her “spot,” she sticks to it forever.

Riley needs a fenced-in yard and a patient adopter willing to continue training a deaf dog. In return, she’ll give you endless love, loyalty, and joy.

If you’re looking for a truly special companion—Riley is your girl. To apply to adopt Riley go to www.peace4paws.org/adoption-application on a laptop or computer.
