KIRKZ NEEDS A FOREVER HOME!!!!
Come meet Kirkz and other great adoptable dogs this Sunday (May 19th) from 12-3 pm at the Petsmart in Falls Church (6100A Arlington Blvd, Falls Church, VA 22044)!
Name: KirkzBest Guess for Breed: Chihuahua and terrier mix
Best Guess for Age: 1 year, 6 months as of 1/12/2024 SEX: male
Approximate Weight: 12 lbs.
Gets Along With: Other dogs. Kirkz cannot go to a home with kids under age 12 due to his breed. He also cannot go to a home with cats.
Special adoption considerations: No kids under 12 due to breed and no cats.
Kirkz is Looking For: Kirkz can't wait to see what life in the big city is like. Chihuahuas are energetic little busybodies who keep their pet parents amused with their antics. They aren't meant to be running partners but Chihuahuas are happy to accompany you on frequent walks around the neighborhood to check out the exciting scents and meet new people. This adorable little guy is sure to break hearts with his big ears and soulful golden eyes.
Dog parks with a designated small dog area are best for these little ones. .Doggie daycare would be another great way for him to play and make new canine friends. Chihuahuas are known for having a bold, 'big dog attitude' start training early with Kirkz. You will both have loads of fun as learns how to show you what a good boy he can be.
What My Foster Says About Me: Kirkz is such a sweet, silly little boy! I can’t sit down without jumping onto my lap, and when I come near him in the house he rolls on his back and demands tummy rubs. He gets along beautifully with Gracie, my Chi/MinPin mix, who’s literally twice his size. When I have dinner he will lie down with his head resting on my thigh, patiently waiting for me to share with him. In addition to the usual, he loves broccoli, carrots, zucchini, Brussels sprouts, and pasta. He loves his crate, and will often rest there during the day; when I pass by it, he’ll follow me around to make sure he doesn’t miss any new adventures in the house.
Kirkz is a bit of a puller on walks, but at 15 pounds, it’s no biggie. He greets every human he meets like a long-lost relative, but he can be quite picky when it comes to choosing his doggie friends. He loves car rides, and will usually settle in and curl up after a minute or two. He hasn't had an accident in my house in almost a month. He’s a pup that you have to meet one-on-one to appreciate his many charms and attributes.
Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken. All of our dogs are working on their crate training.
TO ADOPT: The adoption fee for this dog is $460, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations. If you are interested in adopting, please complete the Adoption Questionnaire onlineatbit.ly/adoptaluckydog.

The adoption process begins when you submit an adoption application either online or at an adoption event. The individual responsible for the dog you are interested in adopting - a position we call the “adoption coordinator” - will then set up a time to discuss your application over the telephone. The adoption coordinator will check your vet reference to make sure all current and past pets were kept up-to-date with their shots and medical care. The adoption coordinator will also set up a home visit with one of our trained volunteers. That individual will come to your home to ensure that it is a safe environment, to confirm that everyone in the home is on board with adopting a dog, and to discuss any other questions you may have about dog adoption!
