About Irish

Meet Irish! This lovely 5-year-old black Greyhound has a sweet, affectionate personality and a charm that truly shines. She's friendly, outgoing, and confident, eager to be close to her people and soak up all the love. Irish has excellent leash manners and handles herself calmly in everyday situations. She has experience living with other breeds of dogs and has been around children, making her suitable for family life. However, she can get quite excited when encountering other dogs, especially smaller ones. Therefore, she needs a home where she'll receive continued training to help her stay calm around them. Due to her interest in small dogs, she is not suitable for a home that has small animals. With a comfy bed and a little guidance, Irish has all the makings of a wonderful companion. This beautiful girl is ready to find her forever home and enjoy a loving family life. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
