Meet Knox

 Knox came to us as a stray, and unlike many other dogs, did not get reclaimed. He’s a handsome Dutch Shepherd X and has just the sweetest personality. He seems to not pay much attention to most other dogs, he does not like cats, but given his breed, he has the proper demeanor to be around kids. He would make a great addition to any family, and be loyal and obedient. (Some extra training may be needed) He knows basic commands and walks pretty well on a leash. H favorite things are neck rubs, shoulder massages, and just your embrace. He is so gentle with taking treats, and would make a great lap dog to cuddle with!  If you would like to meet me, please visit our website and complete the pre-adoption application.  Once it has been processed then we can make a date to get together! All dogs are spayed/neutered, heartworm tested (if over 2 years old), vaccinated, dewormed, flea and tick treated, microchipped and more before adoption. Our adoption policies include: Application, Vet Reference, Landlord approval & Criminal Background Check. We do not do same day adoptions. We request that you call for an appointment after your application has been approved to come and visit the dog of your choice. If you have a dog currently, you should bring him/her along to meet the new dog so we can see how everyone interacts.  Please visit our website for additional information. The online application can be found at :https://hsburnettcty.org/adoption-guidelines/
