Gimme’ Shelter: Kira with the never-ending smile – RISPCA, Cheryl Tudino

Cheryl Tudino, RISPCA
Hi there, I’m Cheryl, a volunteer at the RISPCA in Warwick, full-time treat dealer, poop scoop enthusiast, and unpaid publicist for dogs who deserve way more followers than influencers.
Today, I would like to introduce you to one seriously adorable short stack! Meet Kira: Sweeter than maple syrup. Big love. Short legs. Zero calories.
Kira is a 1-year-old, 53-pound love bug who may be short in stature but absolutely stacked with personality and a never-ending smile. Think of her as the perfect pancake: sweet, lovable, and guaranteed to melt not just your butter, but your heart.
This little flapjack loves to play ball and would happily spend her entire day hanging out by your side. Kira is a total people girl who loves love, following her favorite humans around, playing with her toys, and soaking up every ounce of love you are willing to dish out.
Kira has not had the opportunity to meet other dog friends, cats, or children yet, so she will need introductions to be slow, thoughtful, and supervised as everyone gets to know one another.
If you are looking for a compact low rider with a big heart, big personality, and an extra-large serving of sweetness, Kira may be your perfect breakfast, I mean companion.
Are you looking to flip the script and give this short stack a home? Apply to adopt the Kira today at https://www.rispca.org/adoptable-dogs , or email [email protected] with any questions! Be prepared for a sugar overload, but I promise zero crash!
Animal ID- RIS-A-29580. Kira says, “This is how to find me on the breakfast menu.”
Breed- Terrier, American Staffordshire / Terrier, American Pit Bull AKA Low Rider
Sex- Female/Sweetest Princess that ever lived
Weight- 53.2 lbs. of butter, syrup, and pancakes
Age- 1Y/5M/0W of perfection around the sun
Cheers,
Cheryl 🐾
