My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hello, future family! I’m Iris, and I’m here to shine as the star of your life! I’ve lived with kids of all ages and did wonderfully with them, though I do prefer the company of calmer kids who match my laid-back vibe. I’m a pro at walking on a leash, so our strolls together will be smooth and enjoyable.

I’m also quite comfortable in a crate and love going for car rides, so whether we’re heading out for a new adventure or just running errands, I’m your perfect travel buddy. But what I truly adore is spending quality time with my people, whether it’s lounging around or playing with my favorite toys.

If you’re looking for an amazing companion who’s great with kids, enjoys car rides, and loves to relax and play, I’m your girl. Let’s create a lifetime of wonderful memories together—because every star needs a loving home to shine the brightest!

More about this shelter

The Animal Defense League was established in 1934 by a group of individuals, “for the prevention of cruelty to animals; to promote kind and humane treatment of animals; and to aid and assist the enforcement of laws enacted for the prevention of animal cruelty.”

In 1961, ADL moved to its present location in the easily accessible northeast part of San Antonio. Its campus encompasses more than 12 acres and includes a two-acre pet park. On the property is an Adoption Center with a small retail store, and a separate 5,000 square-foot Clinic which houses our veterinary hospital that provides onsite spay/neuter surgery, surgery for injured and ill animals, and ongoing medical care for all ADL resident animals.
