DragonRam Nelly Iris

Puppy #4 from Phoenix's litter to go home was Nelly Iris. Just like her brother Tobey Lupin, Nelly will be making her new home in the Montreal area. She is the gold female with a black nose - again, just like Tobey!

Nelly was the "active" female at the temperament evaluation. Here is what the testers had to say about her:

ADVENTURER, INDEPENDENT, IMPULSIVE
Iris is an independent, take-action kind of puppy. She can be very affectionate, but on her own terms. She loves to explore and will not take kindly to being restrained or confined. She will bond very strongly to her owner and select others. She is not a social dog and will ignore most other people and dogs. She is highly distractible and will move impulsively towards objects, scents, sights or sounds of desire. She will need to learn impulse control and a solid recall in order to be given any freedom off-leash in uncontrolled environments (such as outdoors). She is very amusing and has an enthusiasm for life. She will need an active owner who can provide her with structure and routine.

 Nelly's new human mama has no human children and so Nelly will benefit from lots of attention when mama is around. She will get lots of walks and active time with mama, and will get to play outside and maybe, once she's grown, get to play dog sports to give her enthusiasm and energy an outlet. Mama expects to retire in a few years at which point Nelly will get even more fun play time together.

We wish you both lots of adventures together!
