About Kira

Kira is a petite pit bull at just 43 pounds, with a gentle and deeply affectionate spirit. Despite being passed over in the shelter, and having her ears crudely cropped by her previous owner, Kira’s kindness and soft nature are still clear. Now fostered in a loving home in Ontario, she’s rediscovering joy and loves to zip around with happy zoomies. She wins people over easily and just wants to be close to her humans, soaking up any affection she can get. Kira is truly low maintenance—give her a cozy spot near you and she’s content. She is dog selective, so she’ll thrive as either an only pet or with a calm, compatible canine friend. Kira would love an adopter who enjoys daily walks or has a yard, but mostly she craves a family that will see past her looks and cherish her gentle temperament with lots of cuddles.
