In return he asks for very little. A pat on the head at least, a tummy tickle will keep you in his good books, but some treats will make you his best friend. The best part of Iden is he is always smiling (we think) and happy (that one we know for sure).

For all dog-lovers, Iden looks forward to meeting and greeting you!
