Iris's Story

Apply to adopt at https://tinyurl.com/bdezz6kb (copy & paste to browser)<br/><br/>AGE (our best estimate): 9 years<br/><br/>WEIGHT: 54 pounds<br/><br/>PERSONALITY: Goofy, friendly, obedient<br/>I’m Iris—a Caribbean queen with a calm spirit and a quiet kind of magic. Like the Greek goddess of the rainbow, I’m here to deliver a little light and joy wherever I go, usually with a gentle lean-in for pets to make sure you’re receiving the message. I prefer slow strolls, cozy naps, and meaningful company over chaos, carrying myself with the grace of someone who knows her worth. If you’re ready for a loyal, easygoing companion who brings color, calm, and a touch of goddess energy to your life, I’m ready to claim my throne beside you.<br/><br/>HISTORY: Originally from the U.S. Virgin Islands, Iris was found wandering the streets, still dragging a heavy chain. Though her former owner was located, they chose not to reclaim her. At the USVI shelter, she found comfort in a unique routine: every Sunday, an 11-year-old volunteer visited her kennel to read to her.<br/><br/>ENERGY LEVEL: Moderate<br/><br/>EXPERIENCE WITH:<br/>Kids: Unknown<br/>Dogs: Unknown<br/>Cats: Encountered/not good with<br/><br/>FOSTER FEEDBACK:<br/>“Iris is very sweet, well behaved, and easy to have in our home. Everything she does is cute! She enjoys being tucked into blankets which is adorable, and sometimes when she’s sleeping her tongue stays poking out of her mouth.”<br/><br/>MEDICAL:<br/>We do our best to ensure the dogs in our care are up-to-date on vaccinations, spayed or neutered (when old enough), microchipped, and given a general health check. Immediate medical needs and medical history will be addressed with the adopter prior to adoption. Complete vet records will be sent shortly after adoption.
