Description

Knox is a 2 year old Dutch Shepherd mix. He is a big boy weighing in at 76 pounds who is full of puppy like joy and love. He can be shy with new people at first, but warms up and wants all the pets he can get. He loves to play with his toys and is happy playing by himself or with his people. He is learning to fetch, but right now he thinks its fun, not an absolute need.  Knox is good on a leash and loves going on walks. He can ignore barking dogs and other noises. He will look, but not react much, if at all. For the most part, Knox is a very laid back dog with a good off switch. He is crate and potty trained. At the shelter Knox did ok with a dog for room mate, but it looks like at sometime in the past he was attacked by another dog.so he needs very slow introductions (like 2 weeks or more) and a person that canmake sure the other dog gives him room to be comfortable. Given a choice with a dog pushing at him he will run away, however if he feels threatened he has snapped at other dogs. He currently plays in a group of 4 dogs and does great. Knox is an absolute love.
