🐾 MEET IRIS – LITTLE BODY, BIG LOVE 💕

Currently in foster care in Marrickville, this approximately1-year-old Chihuahua x Jack Russell Terrier is a certified cuddle-bug with a whole lot of love to give 🥰

Iris may have started off a little shy, but with patience and kindness she has absolutely blossomed. Now she’s ready for a home that will give her that same time and space to continue growing into her best self 💛

This cheeky little lady is the perfect mix of playful and snuggly – zoomies one minute, curled up on the couch (or perched on top of it 😄) the next… and yes, she’s very generous with kisses 💋

✨ Why you’ll love Iris:
🐶 Great in the car
🌙 Sleeps through the night
🚽 Toilet trained (takes herself outside!)
👨‍👩‍👧 Loves people once she settles & is great with visitors
🧠 Clever girl learning “sit” & “into bed”

Iris is still finding her confidence in the big wide world, so she’ll need a calm, home in a quieter area away from busy streets and noise to help her feel safe and thrive 🌿

She’s also still a puppy at heart (hide your shoes, socks & cushions! 😅), so enrichment, toys and continued positive training will be important.

🐾 Dog-friendly? Absolutely!

Iris is currently living with two small dogs and would love a canine companion in her forever home. She may also suit being your one-and-only if you’re home often and can provide plenty of love, attention and regular social time with other dogs 💕

🏡 Her dream home?

A safe space with indoor/outdoor access, a secure yard to build confidence… and of course, a comfy couch for endless cuddles (non-negotiable! 🛋️💖)

Another small dog or two to share the home and couch with and also give her confidence in the outside world
