Iris
💕 A Gentle Soul
Iris is a sweet little girl who’s still learning that life can be kind. She gets so excited when her foster mum walks into the room — her tail wags non-stop — but she prefers to watch quietly from her safe spot in her dog bed.
With a slow and gentle approach, Iris will happily let you stroke her head or tummy. She’s still unsure about cuddles, but she’s learning that they can feel really nice (just for short bursts at the moment!).
🍖 Food & Treats
Iris is a great little eater and doesn’t guard her food. She does a happy twirl when she knows treats are coming and will wait patiently for her meals.
She’s not quite brave enough to take treats from your hand yet, but that will come with trust and time.
🌿 Favourite Things
- Pottering around the garden for a good sniff of all the interesting smells
- Watching the world go by from her bed
- Quietly observing what’s going on before deciding if she wants to join in
🚶♀️ Walkies & Training
Iris has only had her first vaccination, so she hasn’t started going out for walks yet.
She’s a little nervous of her harness and lead, so her new family will need to take things slowly and gently to build her confidence.
House training is still a work in progress, but she’s trying her best.
🏡 The Perfect Home
Iris would love:
🐾 A quiet home — perhaps with older people or a calm family (children 7+)
🐾 Either as an only dog with friendly doggy pals or with a laid-back resident dog
🐾 A family who understands that patience, kindness, and time will help her blossom
Not tested with cats or small furries.
Not interested in toys just yet — she’s still figuring them out!
