For the most part, Riley is a happy dog. He runs around all the time. If he had the ability to play 24/7, he would.

Riley hadn’t gotten a new toy recently. So he decided to find one on his own. We had a Homer Simpson stuffed doll lying on the kitchen table. One of us had found it while cleaning out the basement. My husband decided that he wanted to keep it. He likes The Simpsons, and I had […]

One morning, my husband and I were talking before we got out of bed to start the day. We sometimes do this to avoid the actual “getting up” part for as long as possible. As we were talking, he felt something strange under the sheets. He felt around and pulled his hand out. In it […]

Because we had the Winter from Hell this year, as soon as it got warm enough this spring, I began to open one of the windows in my home office to let in some cool breezes and to smell the pleasant outside air. One day, Riley noticed that the window was open and that if […]

Since it’s springtime, my husband and I thought that we should do something to celebrate…like repainting parts of the outside of our home. Yeah, we really know how to party. I enjoy painting, but I have to admit that I didn’t always. Back in 6th grade, my mom decided that we should update my bedroom. […]

As you can tell by past posts, Riley is an, um, unusual puppy. And just one of the different and cute things he does is that he plays Santa year ‘round with my stepdad. How does he do this? Well, for some reason unknown to us, Riley loves to carry items from throughout the house […]

Like every other dog I’ve ever had or met, Riley loves treats. But just as much as he loves treats, Riley loves something else: ice cubes. You might think that a treat, which is made with chicken or beef or veggies of some sort would be much more appealing. But no. Not for this pup. […]

Riley the wonder dog must have been taught by his previous owners to play fetch with a stick. How do we know this? Because any time he goes outside, instead of doing what dogs are supposed to out there, he first runs to the nearest stick. He picks it up and then begins to run […]

Meet Riley… Three years ago, when we adopted Riley, we were told that he was three years old. After a trip to our vet for his initial check-up and shots, we found out that he was, at the oldest, one year old. Um…what???? My husband and I were stunned. We weren’t planning on adopting a […]
