About 7 months ago, Little Kirby's plight was brought to our attention by Dr. Will Kirby. A friend of his contacted him about a small Yorkie that was born with no eyes. Little Kirby was abandoned at a Vet's office and that was when a wonderful organization called "Yorkshire Terrier Rescue" stepped in. Dr. Kirby became involved in seeking out a caring home for this little guy as well as volunteering to cover the adoption costs, thus this adorable little pup became known as Little Kirby. He was placed in foster care until he would be old enough for adoption. During this time, his foster family helped him to adapt to his blindness.

While he is a special needs dog, he has learned to adapt very well. Yorkies are intelligent, loving dogs and Little Kirby is no exception. With his cute overbite, he almost looks like he is smiling. We have some videos on the page so you can follow some of his development.

Linda is currently providing a foster home for Little Kirby until a permanent "forever home" can be found and here is a quote from her:

"For those those that don't know, Kirby has been staying at my home since 12-31. He has adapted so well and is not a problem at all. He goes on two walks a day and does seem to enjoy it. He joins the other dogs at night on my bed until about 11 PM and then they all go to bed. I don't hear from him until Carrie sounds the alarm about 6:30 or 7:00. Kirby is a good boy and seems to have radar. Very rarely does he bump into things. I think I bump into things more often than he does. He loves his bed and almost looks like he is smiling when actually he has a bad bite but that just makes him more charming. LOL"
NB Pictures of him coming in and out of the doggie door and in his new bed can be found on the site under the pics section.

Let's give Little Kirby something to really smile about. Please join us in helping this precious pup find a wonderful loving parent(s) to make a warm and nurturing home for him. If you think you know someone or would be the perfect parent for Little Kirby, please contact Patty or Linda at the email address listed below. Little Kirby is looking for his own special person or people to love.
