REILEY (MN's Wage of Sin)
6/27/98 - 6/25/10
Reiley adopted US on Sept. 15th 2002. He definately picked us, it was as though he opened the door to his crate as we walked in to the basement of Tender Touch that day and said come on in. He had Shana wrapped around his paw from day one. I still am not sure who was more excited that day him or her. We moved into an apartment with a animal lover as a landlord, just so we could get a greyhound or two, earlier that summer.
He made you work for his affection. He would let you know if you were watching tv in bed too late with a big SIGH! As if you were disturbing his slumber. He loves pillow, little ones his grandmother made especially for him. He would toss them five feet in the air spin around and catch them. If I stopped petting him on one side of the sectional sofa he would give me some attitude then walk to the other end and stare at Shana til she would pet him. We were so happy when we moved into a new house in 2007 that had a large flat back yard. We worked like crazy putting in a fence before winter so they could run around free everyday. After the apartments they had finally found their HOME. He and his brother have their own little "bachelor pad" where they spend their day while "we went off to make MILKBONE MONEY" aka work.
We just feel as if we have been blessed by having him in our life. We miss you and Love you Reiley. We'll see you again some day.
Bruce & Shana
