Irie

Terrier (Unknown Type, Medium)

Female, Adult
Middletown, RI
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Irie was born on Andros Island, Bahamas. She is what the locals call a potcake, which is just their name for a mixed-breed dog. Irie is an intelligent, loyal, energetic and playful dog, but she also loves to lay in the sun and take long naps. She enjoys going on runs and she is very good at solving puzzle toys that involve treats. Irie will be most happy in a home with no other pets and no small children, as she gets really nervous. This may be solvable with training. She enjoys the occasional cuddle and she does great at bath time. She loves the beach and playing Frisbee.
