Kirby's Story

***Kirby***<br/>Hi, my name is Kirby! I'm a 10-month-old Lab mix puppy looking for my forever home. I'm a curious boy who is still figuring the world out, so I would love to find a family that will help me keep learning. I can be a little timid at first, but once I'm comfortable my puppy energy comes out!<br/><br/>I like going for walks, and my foster parents say I'm doing much better on my leash. I also love playing with toys, especially Kongs, and am really good at entertaining myself with them. I'm learning that sometimes I like playing fetch with those toys, too!<br/><br/>I like playing with my foster dog sister when she's up for it (I can be high-energy in my play style). I'd be okay with a dog sibling in my forever home, too, as long as they're patient and/or have a similar play style as me.<br/><br/>I haven't been introduced to my foster mom's cat yet, but while I may not hurt a cat, because of my herding instinct, I may try to chase it. If you have a cat that is comfortable around dogs we can talk. <br/><br/>I may have some herding breed(s) in me because I do like to try and herd my foster mom around the house. I can also be a little over enthusiastic at times with my greetings and wanting to play. For that reason, I would do best with older children. My foster parents think this is mostly puppy energy and that, with the right guidance and patience, I'm going to grow into a great dog. Would you like to help me get there?<br/><br/>While I LOVE exercise, I am ok without a fence as long as you keep me safe and contain me. I'm pretty athletic too so if you do have a fence, you might want to make sure that I can't find a way around it.<br/><br/>I do well in my crate, but I'm a little young to be left home alone all day if you work full time--as long as I had some play time to break up the day, I should be good. I like my crate and am happy to go into it.<br/><br/>If you're interested and you’re an approved LELRR adopter, refer to the instructions on your approval email. If you haven’t already been approved, please fill out an application at https://www.lelrr.org/adopt.html. <br/>Be prepared to provide proof of up-to-date vaccinations and year-round heartworm preventative for any current or recent pets that you have owned.<br/>Adoption radius is 150 driving miles from Medina, Ohio.
