Riley (Joanne Fuller )

Riley Grace, sometimes known as Gracie, is an adorable pup from Portsmouth, New Hampshire. She is a 2-year-old mini Goldendoodle. She's extremely friendly to people and other dogs. Since she is a certified therapy dog, she spends her days working at hospitals, nursing homes and homeless shelters.


First day home

Her owner was so excited to be getting her first dog as a retirement gift to herself. Riley was so tiny and it didn't take long at all for her family to fall in love with her!


Favorite treat

Cheese is Riley's go-to snack. (Us too.)

Dislikes

Long car rides are not Riley's friend at all. She also gets really scared when she hears thunder outside.


Funniest habit

She is a master at chasing squirrels from window to window in the house.


Favorite Toy

Her ducky.


She's a loving pup

As you can tell, Riley is an extremely loving and goofy pooch! She loves attention and likes to stand on her hind legs to be pet. Her work as a therapy dog is amazing and she brings joy to many!
