My story

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

Knox is an incredible dog with so much love to give and a personality that will keep you smiling every day! This active boy is full of life and energy—he loves to play, explore the yard, and is always on the lookout for his favorite pastime: chasing lizards! He’s a fan of stuffed animals, though they rarely stay intact after his "surgical inspections."

Knox is amazing with older kids and shines brightest when he has a "person" to follow and learn from. In his foster home, the family’s little girl was his everything—he listened to her commands like an eager-to-please puppy. (Did we mention she trained him in German? This smart boy is ready to learn even more!)

Knox is great on walks, though he needs someone strong to hold him because he sometimes forgets he’s not 10 lbs. He’s full of puppy-like excitement but desperately needs some obedience training to channel his energy and good intentions. If you know his breed and have the patience to teach and love him, Knox will repay you with boundless loyalty and affection.

More about this shelter

The Animal Welfare League is a non-profit organization committed to advocating for animal protection and welfare. We are based in Port Charlotte, Florida. Since 1963 our shelter has served the Charlotte County community by providing a temporary home, medical service and caring attention for many dogs, cats and other animals. These animals come to us as strays, pets given up by their owners, unfortunate animals rescued from abuse and neglect, or simply lost pets in need of being re-united with their families.
