Kirk Doglass's Story
.Kirk came to us from a high-kill shelter. He was found as a stray with a minor injury to his toe that has healed just fine. He was obviously abused in the past and is learning to trust humans again so he tends to be shy with new people. He absolutely loves other dogs and wants to be near them all the time. When Kirk is with another dog he gains confidence and it is wonderful to see the happy boy shining through his protective emotional shell. He needs a home with people who will lavish him with love and patience as he continues to heal his soul, and with a doggie friend who can help build the confidence that he needs to live a full and happy life (and provide him with the canine companionship that he loves). Kirk is a very sweet boy who bonds quickly with new human friends as soon as he realizes they are not going to hurt him. He behaves well with children but might find their energy overwhelming so probably would do best with older children.
