MELESWOOD RATHER SPECIAL
RILEY

d.o.b.

Pedigree


Due to the fact that an old injury of Jeans has become worse in that she is suffering more pain and finding it difficult to be as mobile as she was, we decided that the time has come to start re assesing our situation. One of the hardest things that we have had to do is to let Riley go back to his breeder. Riley is a wonderful dog, fantastic temperament, although boisterous and a little on the heavy side, not overweight just a good sound solid dog, it was only after he had nearly knocked Jean over a couple of times that we did make our decision to let him go while he is young enough to settle in a new home. Riley has left a us with a lot of very fond memories, he is now living on the Orkney Isles with a light house keeper just down the road from his breeder. Steve Jenkinson. We thank Steve from the bottom of ours hearts for letting us have Riley and also for helping to rehome him. Riley has produced some fantastic pups that have done well in the show ring and also give several families a lot of pleasure and companionship.

Here are some photos and video of him in his new home.
