Hi! My name is Riley! My brother (Winston) and I were found running the streets of Universal City. We are approximately a year old. I am the little brother. We were both really scared. We have been with our foster mommy for about a week now.
I am gradually coming out of my shell. I will come over to foster momma and want to be picked up and petted. Sometimes I make it a game and will play shy, but then give in and let her pick me up to relax in her lap. Other times I jump up in her lap and demand attention! If I do not get it, I will swat at her with my paw until she pays attention to me!
I am still a puppy with lots of puppy energy. I love toys and playing with my brother. I also have foster brothers and sisters that are my size and bigger than me. I also like to explore the backyard.
When I am done with playtime, I like to lay down on the couch next to momma or in my bed, wherever that may be. Momma placed my bed on top of the kennel while she was cleaning it and that did not stop me! I climbed on top of the kennel and took a power nap!
I am kennel trained. I am working on potty training but I am a very fast learner. I should master it very quickly!

Something to Consider:
Puppies don't train themselves
If you aren’t willing to train a puppy every single day, don’t get a puppy! It isn’t a one-shot deal. You have to be dedicated. And if you aren’t making progress – find someone who can help. Enroll in a puppy training class or hire a trainer. Most cities across the nation have some sort of availability for this kind of help and at different cost levels that would fit your budget.
Puppies are going to poop a lot and pee even more; chew on everything; bite everyone; scratch people and furniture; steal things; destroy something at some point; pull on the leash; not move at all on the leash; bark; cry; beg for attention; and the list goes on. You’re going to have to walk them, bathe them, pick up everything below waist height, buy new shoes, and most importantly: TRAIN THE PUPPY NOT TO DO THESE THINGS! Ultimately, it is your responsibility to teach your puppy that this behavior is unacceptable.
Puppies turn into dogs...
