Kirby is an 11 year old Lab who belongs to Bev Pratt from Grand Marais. Kirby strongly disagrees with the notion that he is as dumb as a rock insisting instead, that he is a smart as one. With upper echelon skills at tennis ball locating and retrieving, Kirby not only keeps those around him 'entrained until they're drained,' but he is fully content being calmly petted, laying in the sun or, when no one is looking, sleeping on the couch. A great dog and always a good boy, Kirby is easy to get along with and fun to be around. Pet of the Week celebrates pets, past and present. Please share some of your favorite photos with all of us.
