Dog of the Week: Kirby

Kirby, a 6-year-old male, has a cute puppy face and a fabulous personality. Though he's an older dog, he has a puppy-like face, and when he gets excited, he shakes with happiness and wags his tail.

He had hair loss and skin problems when he rescued from a hoarding situation in Los Angeles, but after medical treatment, those issues have cleared up.

Kirby would be best as an only dog with a somewhat active family who would take him on walks and play with him. Nevertheless, he would not do well with children.

His ideal owner would be someone who wants to make a difference and give him a second chance at a wonderful life.

Kirby is neutered, current on all his vaccines and will be microchipped before he's adopted.
