MEET Knox!
Looking for the most loyal best friend? Knox is your guy. Knox’s dream person or people are simply just committed to him! He was pulled from an overcrowded shelter at 6 months old, and has been in several foster homes since, now nearing 1 year old!! He is a petite lil guy at 40lbs, easy to fit in the car or in your lap on the couch!
Knox is still very much a puppy; he is treat and toy motivated, and is a velcro pup once he gets to know you. Sox takes 2-3 days to warm up to new people, and during that time is typically shy/scared of being touched which we see from the super loyal shepherd type dogs often. A home setting is a must for Knoxy and a play yard would be a HUGE plus.
Knox is moderately energetic exercise-wise, and true to his breeds (cattle dog + malinois DNA tested). He can get a bit jumpy/mouthy when he's excited, but has never been aggressive. Again, true to his DNA! These breeds are not a match for a home with small kids. No cats in shared indoor space because he will chase if they run! Knox is currently in a foster home with 5 other adult dogs ranging from 25-100lbs plus small foster puppies and is thriving!
Knox has now done 2 long road trips are is a rockstar when crated in the car. He sleeps like a baby! He used to have separation anxiety but now loves his crate & is crated alone during a typical workday. When you arrive home you are met with an uberly excited boy who can't wait to do something fun with you like trick training, playing with his bite tug, or chill sniff walks. He is not a dog that needs heavy exercise to thrive, but he needs direct interaction with his people everyday to thrive-- did we mention he LOVES his people?? Knox builds a really strong connection with "his" human/humans and will make you feel like the most special person In the world. It is an honor to be loved by our sweet Knox!
