Knox′s Story

Hi there, I'm here to tell you our story, straight from a puppy's heart.

It all started when a kind rescuer spotted our mum while she was still pregnant with us. She was terrified and ran away whenever they got close. They never gave up, though. One day, they found her hiding in an abandoned house, where she had just given birth to us – five tiny pups. But again, our scared mum bolted, leaving us behind.

By the time the rescuers reached us, one of our siblings had already passed away. We were so weak and sick that they rushed us to the vet immediately. That’s when we heard the scary word “parvo virus” – a big, bad illness that made us feel so tiny and fragile. The vets did everything they could, but sadly, another one of us didn’t make it. And then there were three.

We fought with all our might, and against all the odds, we survived! Now, the three of us are safe at the 2nd Chance Dogs rescue center, starting our journey to recovery. We’re still young and have a lot of growing up to do, but we’re getting stronger every day.

Once we’re old enough and healthy, we’ll be on the lookout for our forever homes. Homes where we can be loved and cherished, with families who will care for us and make sure we never have to feel scared or alone again.

So, if you're looking for a little bundle of love who’s been through the toughest start in life but is ready for a bright, happy future, keep an eye out for us. We can’t wait to find our special homes and start our new lives filled with love and joy!

Character & Temperament

Despite our rocky start in life, my siblings and I make the most of every day! I’m a tiny little warrior, full of life, wonder, and curiosity! Being playful, fun-loving, and always ready for a new adventure, I'm the kind of pup who turns everything into a game.

Exploring is my absolute favorite! You see, the only places I knew before were that dirty, old abandoned house and the kennel at the vet’s, where I was bravely fighting for my life. Everything was so scary and new back then. But now? Every leaf, every shadow, every new face is a chance to discover something wonderful.

I love meeting new people, making new friends, and, oh, playing with toys – those are the best! I’m always up for a game of tug-of-war or fetch. And snuggling? I’m a pro at that too. After all the battles I’ve fought, cuddles and love are my rewards, and I can't get enough of them.

So, if you’re looking for a tiny bundle of joy who’s got the heart of a lion and the spirit of an explorer, I’m your pup! I’m ready to find a forever home where I can keep being playful, where I can keep exploring, and where I can give all the love I have.

Ideal Home for Knox

Kind and Patient Hearts: I’ve had a rough start, so I need a family that understands that I’m still learning about the world and how to trust. Gentle, patient humans who can give me time to adjust and lots of love will help me continue to blossom into the confident, happy pup I’m meant to be.
