Meet Kirby!! Do you want to love on a fur baby and see him absolutely cherish you? Then precious Kirby could be the one for you. He is a teenager Rat Terrier/Jack Russell/Corgi mix (BEST ASSESSMENT, NO GUARANTEE), and, at about 6 months old (ALSO BEST ASSESSMENT), he had never been shown the love and attention a fur family member should be given – that is, until SAL jumped in to save him.
With love, care and patience, this sweet boy is learning things one day at a time. Each day is a new moment for him. He started interacting with his foster family in less than a week and now joins them for movie night, gets excited when they come home, and makes his way on to the porch for morning coffee.
What type of home is Kirby looking for you ask? One with love and patience and a confident fur sibling so he can flourish & gain security/confidence and show his adorable little personality. He also enjoys his back yard -- so we are seeking a forever home with a physically fenced yard. That will allow him to bounce around and play bow when he races towards you and then darts off giving you a little bit of that stubby tail.
Other basics on Kirby -- he loves his crate, has had no accidents in his foster home and sleeps through the night without even a peep. He is very respectful of his foster siblings and only occasionally barks. Since Kirby is still gaining his own security and confidence, we preferably are seeking a home without children; however, on a case-by-case basis, we will consider families with respectful, dog savvy, older children.
Kirby is neutered, microchipped, up-to-date on core vaccines, dewormed, & current on flea/tick/heartworm preventative.
**If you are seriously interested, YOU NEED TO APPLY (AS DESCRIBED BELOW). Also, a follow-up email to our adoption committee at info@safeatlast.net is strongly recommended.
To pursue adoption, please register on www.safeatlast.net. (Click Register on the left-hand side of our homepage.) When you receive your password on your email account, please log back on to our website to complete the SAFE AT LAST on-line adoption application. (Click Forms/Application on the left-hand side of our homepage and select the Adoption Application.) Once we have your completed application, if we feel you are a good match, we will contact you by email (So, please check your SPAM.) Our process is straightforward but involves a phone interview, reference checks and a home assessment. An adoption fee of $450 applies.
YOU CANNOT MEET KIRBY UNTIL YOU HAVE BEEN APPROVED TO ADOPT. WE CANNOT CONSIDER YOU UNTIL YOU HAVE SUBMITTED THE FULLY FILLED OUT SAFE AT LAST ON-LINE ADOPTION APPLICATION. Delay in submitting your application will put you behind other potentially suitable applicants. Ultimately, approved adopters will be required to go to the foster home to complete the adoption (Binghamton, NY area).
Thank you for your interest in our Kirby!
