My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

***NEEDS A FOSTER HOME***

Meet Knox - Knox is about 1 year old and weighs 9.5 lbs. Knox is a little shy at first, but warms up quickly. Knox loves the children in his foster home. He even enjoys helping with homework - lol. Knox is a typical small dog who loves his foster family, but he isn't a fan of new people coming to the house. He will need a household that doesn't have people coming in and out often. He likes his people and the rest can take a hike! Knox isn't a fan of the big dogs in his foster home so if there is a dog in his forever home, the dog should be the similar size as Knox. He very much enjoys running and playing with dogs his own size. Knox enjoys sniffing around the backyard and snuggling with his foster family on the couch. Knox is fully house trained and crate trained. Knox is neutered, up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative and microchipped.

***You must be at least 25 years of age to adopt from Canine and Kitties Rescue***

The adoption fee for this dog is $375.00, which helps with the cost of routine vet care.

***Please note that our first step in approving adoption applicants is to complete a vet check. Vetting of current and past pets is very important to us, thus we will be speaking with the vet(s) listed on your application to ensure that your current and previous pet(s) are kept up to date on vaccines (including rabies), spayed or neutered, maintained on appropriate monthly preventatives and examined annually by your vet.***

Our organization cannot guarantee the exact breed of any animal in our care. The breed listed is based on any background we may have been provided, and/or the general appearance of the animal.

Our Adoption Events are scheduled on a monthly basis depending on where most of the dogs are fostered at that time. We plan to hold 6-8 events per year.

More about this rescue

Canines & Kitties Rescue is an animal welfare organization dedicated to rescuing homeless, neglected, and abandoned dogs, puppies, cats and kittens at risk of euthanasia. Our mission is to rescue animals from local and out of state open-admission, high-intake shelters. Our volunteers are experienced in animal care, proper placement and provide assistance to our animals throughout the foster journey, adoption process and beyond. All animals are cared for in our network of volunteer foster homes.

Our volunteer rescuers work with local veterinarians, foster homes, and trainers to provide foster based homes, medical care and training for our animals until she/he is placed in a loving, carefully screened new home. We are dedicated to helping dogs and cats of all breeds and ages including the older, sick, and injured animals as well as the readily adoptable. We have a special spot in our hearts for pregnant unwanted animals and strive to find them a safe foster home to birth and raise their young. We are advocates for spay and neuter and that each animal we rescue will be spayed and neutered at an appropriate age.

Canines & Kitties Rescue is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. We are an exclusively 100% volunteer based, foster-based rescue with our foster network spanning Northern VA, MD, and DC.
