🐶💛 Riley (#PM7393) has a smile that could brighten anyone's day... and once you see it, you'll never forget it.
Just 3 years old, Riley was adopted as a puppy and spent her life surrounded by love. She had the home every dog dreams of. But when her beloved owner was unexpectedly redeployed and had no one who could care for her, they made the heartbreaking decision to bring Riley back to us - hoping we'd help her find another family to love her just as much. 💔
Now Riley is starting over, and while she's handling it with incredible grace, she'd much rather be back where she belongs: in a home.
She's an absolute sweetheart who adores people and greets everyone with the biggest, happiest smile you've ever seen. 😊 She walks beautifully on leash, is completely housebroken, enjoys getting out on adventures, and is the kind of dog who just wants to be by your side.
Riley would do best in a home with children over 6 years old. She also likes other dogs, and a meet-and-greet will help ensure everyone is the perfect match.
She already knows what it's like to be someone's best friend. Now she's just waiting for the chance to be one again. ❤️
📍 Meet Riley (#PM7393) at North Shore Animal League America in Port Washington, NY, and help turn her heartbreaking goodbye into the happiest hello.

“To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile but is morally treasonable to the American public.”
- Theodore Roosevelt 1918
Theodore Roosevelt wrote these words in 1918, during the final year of World War I, when debates over patriotism, loyalty, free speech, and dissent were at their peak.
Although he was no longer president, Roosevelt remained one of the most influential figures in American public life.
The quote comes from an editorial he wrote for the Kansas City Star, in which he argued that patriotism did not mean unquestioning loyalty to those in power. Roosevelt believed no president was above criticism. Instead, he argued that citizens had a responsibility to speak honestly about their leaders, praising them when they were right and criticizing them when they were wrong.
Those words carried particular weight because they were written during wartime, when criticism of government officials was often viewed as unpatriotic or even dangerous. Roosevelt argued the opposite: that a healthy republic depends on honest criticism, even when it is unpopular.
He wrote the passage in his May 7, 1918, editorial, Sedition, A Free Press, and Personal Rule, published just weeks before the Sedition Act of 1918 became law.
