Beautiful Iris has so much love to give, that she even has a heart on the end of her nose!

Iris is deaf, and will need a very special home with someone who will keep her entertained with lots and lots of walks and playtime, and who will invest the time in her training to show her that new people aren’t so scary. Despite her deafness, Iris knows commands such as sit and come, and today she even mastered drop! She was quite keen on all the other dogs at the park today, there was lots of butt sniffing. Because of her deafness, she can’t go off lead, but she makes up for it by playing soccer with her foster mum on a very long leash instead.

She is quite wary of strangers – when I turned up for our shoot today she was quite hesitant of me. After a few treats, pats, and promise of walkies, she came round, but she will need someone willing to build her trust. She is very protective of her foster mum, and would do anything for her as you can see below.

This sweet girl has had a tough start and would love nothing more than to find her perfect home. If you would like to find out more about Iris, please contact PAT (Paws and Tails) Rehoming to see if she is right for you.

Mastering her “drop” command – such a clever girl!
