KNOT

Knot is a high-energy, athletic guy who’s always ready to move. He absolutely loves chasing tennis balls and could happily spend his day running, playing, and burning off energy. If you’re looking for a dog who enjoys activity and interactive play, Knot is your guy. He is extremely food motivated, which makes him a great candidate for continued training and enrichment. Treats go a long way in building his confidence and helping him learn, and he enjoys having a job to do. Knot can be fearful in new and stressful environments, and the shelter has been overwhelming for him at times. With patience and consistency, he has shown that he is capable of building trust and making progress. A calm, structured home where he can decompress, get regular exercise, and continue positive, force-free training will help him thrive. Knot would do best with an adopter who understands fearful dogs and is willing to go at his pace while also meeting his physical and mental needs. In the right home, this active, ball-loving, treat-motivated boy has so much potential to shine.
