Kirby is a scruffy little Brussels Griffon mix with big feelings, a soft heart, and a growing trust in people who show him kindness.

He didn’t start his journey in the easiest place—found as a stray and later landing in a city shelter—but now he’s discovering something new: people can be pretty wonderful, especially the ones with warm laps.

His Personality

Kirby is a “soft start, big heart” kind of dog.

He can be shy at first and needs a moment to understand new people—but once he does, he opens up quickly and shows his affectionate, playful side. He’s the kind of dog who may start off cautious, then suddenly decide you’re his favorite person.

He especially loves laps, toys, and being part of the action—even if he sometimes gets so excited he forgets his manners for a moment.

💛 Sensitive
🐾 Playful
🌿 Social (once comfortable)
💛 Affectionate

The “Learning the Basics” Stage

Kirby is still working on foundational skills like potty training and impulse control (yes, that includes the enthusiastic jumping).

But he’s very responsive, eager to connect, and clearly motivated by attention and affection—great signs for continued training success.

What He’s Looking For

✔️ A patient, understanding adopter
✔️ A home willing to continue basic training
✔️ Dog-friendly environment (he loves canine companions)
✔️ A calm introduction process for new people
✔️ Lots of affection and lap time
