Notes from Austin Boxer Rescue

10/2/2026Kirby is an owner surrender looking for a new home. Hi! My name is Kirby! I am a beautiful 6-year-old flashy fawn girl that is an owner surrender due to my current family unable to care for me. I am described as friendly, active, protective, playful, affectionate, and nervous! I am picky when it comes to my dog friends so a proper meet and greet is recommended. I currently live with two cats and I get along great with them! I currently live with a 16-month-old child and get along well with kids, but can get nervous if they are too rambunctious around me. I like to have boundaries and people and animals respect them. I am house trained, crate trained, eat a chicken free food due to being allergic to chicken, and at night I sleep on my dog bed! When outside I have good behavior and do not dig or attempt to jump fences/gates. In the past I have jumped a baby gate but it was to get outside and use the bathroom. I do not like quick, aggressive play or loud noises. I love to go on walks and playing! If you think I would make a great addition to your family contact the rescue today and give them my name because I am waiting to meet you!
