About Iris

Iris has just turned a year old and is a pretty, female, black Scottish Terrier. We got Iris from a puppymill who couldn’t breed her because she has a genetic issue called Scottie Cramp. Scottie experienced people are familiar with this. This is a genetic neurological trait that affects their gait (walking) when they get excited. It is not painful and does not require any medication. It just comes and goes, but does not prevent her from getting around in her own. Iris was not properly socialized when we got her, they never bothered much with her, so she was shy and fearful, and had never been exposed to anything. She’s been living in foster with our club member and her husband for over 6 months learning all she can. She gets along with the other dogs in her foster home and loves to nap in bed with her foster mom. Once she’s adopted and settles into her new life, she will continue to reach her full potential, with continued love and time. She deserves that chance. Iris is healthy, spayed and vaccinated. We are looking for a home owner who has a fenced yard, another dog for her to play with and learn from, no water features, no young children that could scare her, and northeast only. If you’d like to inquire about Iris or need more information on Scottie Cramp to help you make your decision, please contact Erica Cerny at ecerny@optonline.net or 973-361-6790. She is located in lower NY state.
