Iris Shepherd & Mountain Cur Mix Lawrenceburg, TN

Iris is a beautiful female Shepherd and Mountain Cur mix with a gentle soul. She was found running stray with her brother Toby near some storage buildings, and it took quite a bit of time and patience to finally bring them to safety. It's clear that Iris has likely spent most of her life fending for herself with her siblings, and as a result, she's extremely shy and unsure of the world around her.

Despite her fear, Iris has a sweet and quiet nature. She's not aggressive--just very timid--and will need a calm, patient home where she can learn to feel safe and build trust at her own pace. Once she begins to feel comfortable, her affectionate personality slowly begins to shine through.

Iris gets along well with other dogs and actually seems to find comfort in their presence. A confident dog friend in her future home could help her feel more secure and learn how to be a beloved companion.

If you have a soft spot for shy, gentle souls and the patience to help a scared dog blossom, Iris could be the perfect match for you.
