My story

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

KIRBY – Male Soft-Coated Wheaten Terrier & Poodle Mix | 2 Years Old - DOB 11/25/2023 | 50 lbs | Healthy, Vaccinated & Neutered

Meet Kirby, the handsome fluffball with a heart made of sunshine! At just 2 years old, Kirby is playful, affectionate, and endlessly joyful. He’s the kind of dog who lights up a room the moment he bounces in. With his soft, wavy coat and bright, curious eyes, Kirby brings a perfect balance of sweetness, silliness, and smarts. He loves people, loves adventure, and loves being part of whatever you’re doing.


 


Owner Responsibilities:

Kirby thrives with structure, exercise, and engagement. He’ll need:

  • Daily walks & playtime

  • Mental stimulation (training, toys, enrichment games)

  • Grooming to keep his soft coat healthy

  • Patience, consistency & love

Provide him with routine and bonding time, and he’ll become your devoted companion for life.


Things to Consider Before Adopting Kirby:

  • Do you have time for daily exercise and interaction?

  • Is your home and landlord dog-friendly?

  • Are you prepared for a medium-energy dog with a big heart?

  • Do you have stability (no sudden moves or restrictions)?

  • Are you ready for a lifetime commitment — through every season of life?

A dog is forever family.


Vet Care:

Kirby is healthy, vaccinated, and neutered. Even so, please take him to your personal vet ASAP after adoption to establish ongoing care and ensure his long-term wellness.


The 3-3-3 Rule & Lifetime Commitment:

  • First 3 days: Kirby decompresses, observes, and adjusts to new smells and sounds.

  • First 3 weeks: He starts learning your routine, forming trust, and feeling secure.

  • First 3 months: His heart opens fully — this is when he truly knows he’s home.

Adoption is forever, and Kirby will give his whole heart in return.


Why Kirby Would Be a Great Addition:

Kirby is a gentle, joyful, forever-loyal companion who will fill your home with warmth and laughter. His loving spirit, happy energy, and desire to bond deeply make him a dog who doesn’t just join your home — he completes it. He’s the kind of friend who reminds you daily how beautiful unconditional love can be. ❤️

More about this rescue

We are dedicated to saving dogs from high kill shelters, strays, owner surrenders and hoarders. We have been saving animals since December 2016. We hold weekly adoption events at various pet stores and pet expos. We hire dog walkers to walk our dogs and we have volunteers who help us weekly. Many of our dogs go to boarding and training to become adoptable and work on their behavioral issues. All our dogs are assessed to find a great family match.

All dogs receive all necessary medical attention and all dogs are vetted.
