She is now living with two beloved owners, Lily and Savannah, in Richmond, Virginia, USA. The couple adopted Eris when she was just a pup, and they didn't know how much she actually could grow. Until the dog celebrated her second birthday in 2021, people realized how fast she had grown up.

“It’s amazing how much love Eris gets. We’ve gotten messages from all over the world. People from France, Germany, and Canada write to us. We are very grateful,” shared the dog's owners.
According to Lily, Eris is a Borzoi wolfhound. She is a sweet girl who doesn't bark often and adapts very well to the family's life. For those who don't know much about the Borzoi, this is a dog breed from Russia in the 17th century, known for being quiet, independent, and athletic. Borzois can be also known as Russian wolfhounds whose shoulder-length can reach up to 26-30 inches as they grow older. Males weigh between 75 to 105 pounds on average, while females are a bit lighter, 60 to 85 pounds in weight.
