My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Kirby the lovebug is a super sweet boy. He is so soft and has gorgeous eyes. He's got a muscular physique and such a beautiful coloring that he's a head turner. We aren't quite sure why he hasn't found a new home. He has hit over 330 days with us now.



Kirby would love a big yard and an active home (a tired dog is the best dog).



He really enjoys riding in the car and is a fantastic back seat driver! Usually, he'll try to direct you to Dunkin or Starbucks for a pup cup so you may not want to rely on his directions. He's also never met a mud puddle he didn't like. 



He loves his toys, particularly any type of ball. One of his favorite toys is a Jolly Pet Egg. He will chase that thing all up and down the run when he's outside, and wears the biggest grin while doing it.



He's an excellent soccer player. And he can score goals better than Messi. Kirby went to the soccer field with some volunteers recently and had a blast racing up and down the field, scored a couple goals, and loved on his teammates. He also makes an excellent jogging partner. He's gone hiking and was fabulous on the trail. He's outstanding on the leash (no pulling or darting around). During the summer, Kirby loves to play in the kiddie pool, so its likely he would be a good swimmer if you took him to the lake or have a pool. As you can tell, he is a very well rounded athlete.



Kirby believes he is chihuahua size, so he's the proverbial "bull in china shop". We recommend a home without smaller pets or small children to keep everyone safe and happy.



As with all dogs, he needs someone who will be committed to training him. This will make for a happier Kirby and family. He's currently working with a trainer once a week to help prepare him for his new home.



If you have a big yard (with or without puddles) and/or an active lifestyle, a car with a nice back seat, or don't mind him riding shotgun, Kirby could be your best pal. Put in your applications today to come meet this big goofball! His adoption fee has been sponsored for an approved adopter by one of our long time supporters!
