About Iris Darling Love

Meet Iris!

If there were an Olympic event for giving kisses, Iris would be bringing home the gold medal. This adorable 5-month-old Staffy/Lab mix is a chocolate-colored bundle of love with the squishiest little face, floppy ears, and the sweetest puppy-dog eyes you've ever seen. She has the cutest expression that sometimes looks like a tiny pout, but don't let that fool you – this girl is one of the happiest puppies you'll ever meet. Iris has never met a face she didn't want to kiss. People? Kisses. Dogs? Kisses. Cats? Believe it or not, kisses. If you're looking for a puppy who believes affection is a full-time job, Iris is ready to report for duty. Her biggest goal in life is to love everyone she meets and make sure they know it.

Ideal Home

Iris would thrive in a home that enjoys an affectionate, people-oriented puppy. She's active enough to enjoy adventures and playtime, but at the end of the day she'd much rather be curled up next to her favorite people collecting cuddles. While she's done well around cats with supervision, she's still young and would do best with dog-savvy cats who appreciate a curious puppy.

Ongoing Health

Iris is up-to-date on vaccinations, microchipped, and spayed.

Training & Support

Iris occasionally submissive pees when she gets excited, which is a sign of her soft heart and happiness. As she continues to grow and learn, she'll benefit from positive training, structure, and plenty of opportunities to continue building confidence.
