Cocker Maltese Mix - Riley

Riley Downtown Huntington Beach
Riley is a terrific dog. He is a happy Cocker Maltese mix and loves everyone and everything.
Doggy Beach is his favorite place and we go 3 or 4 times a week. Like all Maltese he won't go in the water except up to his knees. He can walk and play on the beach without a leash and he loves the other dogs and all the people there. After the beach he likes to go to Starbucks for a water and enjoys sitting out front and watching the people and traffic on main street.
He is even good friends with Puss the cat. Riley likes children and will stand patiently while they 'pet' him. My Cocker Spaniel Maltese minds well and is my constant companion when ever I'm not working - he's always at my side, never more than about 4 or 5 feet away at the most.
He loves to ride in "his" car a 1966 Olds 88 convertible. He only complains if we take a car with bucket seats - he likes a bench seat so he can ride in my lap or with his head out the window. He also seems to like riding in the basket on my bike when we ride by the beach. Riley was born October 20th 2006 and I got him Christmas eve 2006. Riley weighs about 19 pounds and is about 14" at the shoulder.
In the summer especially I have him trimmed about every 60 days. Riley is my best friend and just a terrific dog!
