About Us
Kirby, the Dog of the Day
Name: Kirby
Age: Five years old
Gender: Male Breed: Chesapeake Bay Retriever
Home: Elkton, Maryland, USA
 
   Kirby lives on a 600-acre farm in Elkton, Maryland with his owner, my son, Brett. Kirby sometimes thinks he is human. He loves to be driven around in the back of our pickup truck, playing ball and playing with his family and friends. He loves people and people really love him. We think he is beautiful...don't you?

    My wife and I call him our granddog, because we get him at our house usually about two or three days a week. Kirby is five years old, loves the outdoors, loves people, and has a personality like a human being. He dives for rocks in a creek on the farm property, eats unbelievable amounts of food, and is terribly spoiled by everyone.

    Kirby weighs about 110 pounds, and is very energetic and agile. He has four offspring puppies born about a year ago to another purebred Chesie. We all love him more than words can tell.
