Knox - Mixed Breed and Labrador Retriever Dog for Adoption in Austin, Texas

Knox is a very happy-go-lucky boy who was found on the streets wearing a green harness and dragging a green leash. We wish we knew his story. He stayed two months with a foster finder. while awaiting an intake appointment. He didn't live with other animals during that time. He stayed home alone 9-12 hours free roaming without ever causing any troubles.Knox has been staying in the crate room at the shelter and frankly he's pretty over that arrangement. He's not a fan lately of returning to his crate. We can't blame him. It's not comfortable to stay in 24 hrs a day. And Knox likes his precious sleep - at about 8pm he simply reserves the right to rest and not have to get up and go out.Knox had a fresh bath on 6/13 and his coat is so gorgeous and silky black. We would love to get him back into a cool and comfy home ASAP. See his intro video hereAre you ready to help Knox? Come in person between 11-6.Offsite questions?
