About Knox

Meet Knox! This young mixed-breed dog was found as a stray and is now ready to find a loving family. Knox is currently living in a pop-up crate due to overcapacity at the shelter, and his adoption fee is waived. He comes with a $50 Chewy gift card to help you get started on his new life. Knox is a curious guy who enjoys exploring his surroundings and is still adjusting to his new environment. An active home would be ideal for him, where he can engage in daily walks, explore new areas, and participate in stimulating activities like food puzzles and training games. While Knox has shown interest in playing with another dog, his previous history with pets is unclear, so introductions should be handled slowly and thoughtfully. He would do best in a home without children under 13, as he can get a bit excited and jump up. With some patience and guidance, he’ll learn to channel his energy positively.
