About Kirby

Meet Kirby, a charming 2-year-old, 57-pound girl who warms the hearts of everyone she encounters. If you're searching for a devoted companion to brighten your life, look no further. Kirby is a model house dog, boasting excellent indoor manners. Fully house-trained, she signals her need to go out by standing by the door. Trustworthy and calm, she can be left alone for hours without needing a crate—though she might find a cozy spot to hide when the vacuum cleaner makes its appearance. With her joyful spirit, Kirby loves walks, playtime, and car rides. She walks well on a leash but can pull hard when squirrels are around, so an attentive handler is essential. Treats are her motivation; she eagerly sits for rewards and is learning to control her excitement when meeting new people. Kirby adores children but should be the only pet in the house, as she does not get along with cats or dogs, particularly those of similar size. In a home where she can reign as the solo queen, Kirby will dedicate her love and loyalty solely to you. You can find Kirby in Houston, TX, and she can be transported to most states for an additional $300 transport fee. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
