Are you looking for a cuddly couch potato who also enjoys snacks and slow strolls around the neighborhood? Meet Iris! She is a 5ish year old lemon Beagle with a tail that never stops wagging and the sweetest face. Iris is a very short and petite lady ("pocket" Beagle perhaps?) weighing in at a chubby 18 lbs. She likely needs to be closer to 15 lbs. She was found abandoned on a rural Louisiana road in early October 2025.
Iris' foster mom says, "Iris is such a joy. She has a huge heart with lots of love to give. Her favorite place in the world is sitting on the couch next to her person. She is always up for pets, kisses, and treats. She likes to go on walks and sniff every single blade of grass. Her hound dog nose can get her into trouble, so she needs to be on leash or supervised in a securely fenced yard. Otherwise, she will go wherever her nose leads her. Her tail never stops wagging and she does an adorable army crawl when she gets nervous (check out her rescue video in her album below). Iris has had limited interactions with small children but seems to enjoy being around them (and their snacks). She gets along well with other dogs and cats. Iris will get grumbly when she is lying comfortably on the couch and another dog disturbs her. She has not ever bitten or started a fight. She will let other dogs cuddle with her but likes to fuss about it at first. Iris deserves a home where she can have lots of couch time and be spoiled and pampered. I know she will make her new family extremely happy! I will miss her silly little waddle walk, her soft ears, and precious face."

Iris is spayed, microchipped, current on vaccinations, and current on heartworm/flea/tick prevention. Upon rescue, she did test positive for heartworms, but has been treated and as of 1/12/26, Iris is heartworm free! She has also had a recent dental cleaning. All this darling girl needs now is a home!
Iris is currently in foster care in North Louisiana, but we welcome out of state adoptions. We have an amazing transport that delivers all along the East Coast... PA, NJ, CT, NY, VT.
PAWS of NE LA was formed back in 2003 and we have been sending our special Southern dogs to wonderful homes up North since 2010.

Most adoptions are long distance, but you will be able to video chat with the pet's foster family once your application is approved to learn more about them and ask any questions you may have. All animals are fully vetted including vaccinations, spay/neuter, heartworm tested for dogs (and treated if positive), combo tested for cats, microchipped, and current on heartworm/flea/tick prevention.
