Story
Meet Knox. Movie-star looks with best-friend energy. Knox is, without exaggeration, one of the most handsome Siberian Husky mixes you’ll ever lay eyes on. Those striking yellow eyes? They stop people in their tracks. His adventurous spirit? Pure husky magic. ✨ Knox came into the shelter as a stray. With his looks, everyone assumed someone would come rushing back for him. But no one did. Then he waited for an adopter to notice him… and waited some more. As days turned into weeks, Knox was quietly passed over for smaller, fluffier dogs. Big dogs—especially huskies—often are. After 129 days of waiting, Knox needed a plan. Fast. That’s when The Misfit Ranch stepped in and brought him to safety. And here’s the thing: Knox wasn’t just a shelter dog—he was a favorite. Loved by staff and volunteers alike (which tells you everything). Gorgeous and lovable? Yes, please. Turns out Knox is an absolute dream: House trained ✔️ Loves people ✔️ Great with kids ✔️ Dog-friendly ✔️ Rides beautifully in the car He’s about 2 years old and 50 pounds of good-boy energy and affection. Whether you’re a family looking for a loyal companion or an adventurous person or couple looking for a sidekick, Knox fits the bill perfectly. And as if that weren’t enough, Knox captured the heart of Project Pawsible, a professional dog training team who believes in him just as much as we do. They’ve generously offered free lifetime training to Knox’s adopter. He’s already a great dog—this incredible gift simply means his future family will have ongoing professional support to help him continue to thrive, at no cost. Looking for: A hiking hound? A beach buddy? A lap-layer (yes, he tries)? A charismatic co-pilot who’s always down for the ride? Knox is reporting for duty. 🐾 After waiting far too long, Knox is ready for the life he always deserved—full of love, adventure, and someone who finally chooses him.

Story
Shadow is a very sweet lovable and laughable dog. Moments of complete air headedness, follow by wanting pets, followed by wanting food. Although he is a husky, he tends to be on the calmer side and even very timid and weary. But he never says no to food. Heterochromatic eyes, one brown one blue. All and all, very good dog that just needs someone to give him walks, pets, treats, and love.
