Meet Knox, a Great Pyrenees who embodies the gentle giant cliché—he’s a hefty 115 lbs, but his spirit is all warmth and patience. Knox is deaf, which doesn’t dampen his easygoing nature or his ability to enjoy life’s simple pleasures. He charms everyone with his mellow personality, but food brings out his serious side. Knox becomes defensive and protective of his meals—it’s crucial that he eats in his own space with the door closed until he’s finished. Knox must be the only dog in the home, and he does best in an adult-only household. He’s not a fit for families with children or homes with other pets, including cats. The right adopter will appreciate his unique perspective and respect his boundaries, especially around food. Knox thrives in a calm environment with someone patient—someone who understands that his quirks come with a lot of love in return. Strolls and quiet evenings suit him perfectly, and he’s always up for a tail-wag if you are. If you’re looking for a devoted, singular companion ready to give his heart, Knox is waiting to meet you.
