About Irish

Meet Irish, a unique blend of Boxer and Husky, who has the charm of a "chunky, fluffy fox." At 2 years old and weighing about 66.8 pounds, she is ready for new adventures after having a tough start in life. Irish spent her first year as a stray before finding a temporary home, which sadly ended too soon. While she enjoys meeting new people, Irish prefers a gentle approach—strangers reaching over her head for affection can be a bit much for her. With a little patience, you’ll become her trusted "Booty-Scratchin' Specialist." This affectionate girl has a curious spirit and loves to explore, making her perfect for adventurous owners. Irish is spayed, microchipped, and up-to-date on vaccinations and preventatives. Plus, she includes a free training session with one of our partnered trainers. She’s waiting for the right home, and if you think you could be that person, apply today to meet her!
