About Kirby

Kirby is an adorable wiry terrier mix, brimming with playfulness while maintaining a relaxed demeanor. He enjoys engaging with his people but isn't overly energetic, making him an ideal blend of fun and chill. A perfect day for Kirby includes a bit of playtime followed by some quality lounging with his family. Leash training is still a work in progress; he sometimes prefers to freeze or lie down rather than walk, so patience and encouragement will go a long way. Kirby has been progressing well with potty training and sleeps soundly at night in his crate. He gets along wonderfully with other dogs, but a home without cats would suit him best, as he can be a bit too rambunctious for their taste. He’s eager to find a loving home where he can grow and thrive. With his sweet disposition and manageable energy, Kirby seeks a family ready to show him the joys of life. This charming boy is available on-site only Fridays and Saturdays. Click apply to start the adoption process.
