  • Location: Safe Shelter Romania
    Ready to travel to the UK once a suitable Foster / Adoptive home is found.
  • Iris is around six years old and is medium in size, weighing around 25kg.
  • She has had a very sad life and we don’t believe she has ever lived in a home for very long.
  • She has a calm, placid temperament, and is super friendly, loving and eager to please.
  • She had a large lump removed from her leg, which was sent away for analysis and was found to be benign – such amazing news for this lovely girl.
  • She has been neutered and also had a dental, so her teeth are in good condition.
  • She would love a home where someone is around most of the time, as she really craves human company and really wants someone to love her and spend time with her.
  • Iris would be fine living with other dogs, but we would love her to have a home and owners all to herself, where she can enjoy the latter years of her life in a calm, relaxed and loving environment.
  • She will need to get used to going on walks and start to enjoy the wide world around her.
  • We would prefer a home with no children.
  • She is microchipped and fully vaccinated and neutered, and will arrive in any new home with her own passport clearly outlining all the various tests and vaccinations she has had (in line with DEFRA rules and regulations). She will also come with a full APHA (UK) Certificate for Brucellosis which is NEGATIVE.
  • If you think you can offer Iris the home that meets her needs and would like to be considered, please complete the Application Form.
