About Kirby

Hi there, I'm Kirby! I'm an 11-week-old, 16 lb bundle of German Shepherd and Retriever love, with big, expressive eyes that are just waiting to look up at you. My journey started a little scary when I was on my own, but thankfully, a kind family found me and brought me into their warm and loving foster home. Now, I'm living my best puppy life, complete with a big doggy brother who's become my best friend and a couple of laid-back cats who I leave alone. I'm a social butterfly and enjoy playing with the kids too! I'm already a pro at potty training – I can even ring a bell to let my humans know I need to go out. Crates are no problem for me; I eat and sleep in mine just fine, and sometimes I even sneak in a nap in my big brother's! Toys are my jam, and I'm always up for a game of fetch or tug. I'm still figuring out if my ears will stand at attention or stay adorably floppy, but either way, I know I'll be showering you with unconditional love.

Ideal Home

I'd love a home with another doggy friend to play and learn from. An active family that enjoys regular walks and adventures would be perfect for me.

Ongoing Health

I am not yet neutered but will be prior to transport. All core vaccinations (DHPP, rabies) are included.

Training & Support

I'm doing great with potty training and have learned to use a bell to signal when I need to go outside. I'm also comfortable sleeping and eating in my crate.
