About Knight

Knight is a friendly and goofy 2-year-old Rottweiler and Coonhound mix, weighing in at 83 pounds. His playful nature shines through as he rolls around with his toys, and he has impressive leash skills. He's dog-friendly, so if you have another canine at home, a meet and greet will help ensure they mesh well together. Knight tends to be curious and loves to explore, so a home with a fenced yard would be ideal for him to run and play safely. While we haven’t tested him with cats yet, we plan to do so soon. He'd likely be a fantastic addition to a family with children who can match his energy and playfulness. You can meet Knight at Dogs Forever, 809 Rockford Rd SW in Cedar Rapids, on Saturdays from 10-2. Please submit an application before your visit to help us learn more about your home arrangement.
