Iris is a 3-year-old Retriever mix, weighing around 34 lbs, with a soft, gentle spirit and a heart that’s slowly learning to trust. She came to us very scared and unsure, but with time, patience, and kind interactions, she’s begun to open up and show her true, sweet nature. She’s a shy and timid girl who bonds deeply once she feels safe. Iris may take a little time to warm up, but when she does, her affectionate side shines through in the most rewarding way. She’s the kind of dog who will quietly become your shadow and form a strong, meaningful connection with her person.
