About Kirby

Meet Kirby! This 4-year-old Mini Schnauzer mix, around 19 lbs, is a bundle of joy. He's neutered and heartworm negative, making him ready for a loving home. Kirby thrives on companionship, playing sweetly with his foster brother. Walks are among his favorite activities, and he’s been mastering his leash skills. A good roll in the grass and mealtime always excite him! Originally found as a stray, Kirby had quite the makeover after a fresh grooming. Although his coat is a bit short now, he’ll soon sport that classic, scruffy Schnauzer look. He quickly settled in his foster home, is potty trained, and is calm in his crate when his foster is at work. Kirby dreams of a home where he can enjoy daily walks and plenty of love. If you have a playful dog, even better! Want a sweet, friendly companion who loves people, walks, and snacks? Kirby is the one for you! He’s in Houston but can be transported to Virginia for adoption. Click apply to start the adoption process.
