Riley! Riley! He's Leah's Dog!!!

Well, it was confirmed last night! Riley is the one! Riley has proven himself to be healthy and trainable! Thus, Leah has a dog... so to speak!

The timeline is as follows...
Riley is getting some much needed obedience training at this time! He is still young and needs to learn his "basics" first! This will take about 8 weeks! He then moves into phase 2 of the training where he will live with a foster trainer who will submerge him into society...restaurants, stores, public transportation, etc. Then, if the trainers have anything to say about it and Riley goes with the flow (may we say) we should have him in our home sometime in January. At this point we are then looking at an additional 8 weeks (at least) of private training. This will get all of us ready for the certification exams.

We are going to visit him again on Saturday...so check back for new pictures then!
