Knox

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

Gender: male dog neutered: yes Birth year: 2021 Origin: Bulgaria Arrived at our shelter: 08.06.2024 Shoulder height/weight: 57 cm / 22 kg Breed: mixed breed He loves his familiar people, is very clingy, and enjoys attention. However, he can be insecure and submissive if a situation feels overwhelming to him. The harness still terrifies him, as does the idea of a leash. He has made good progress. Knox needs a lot of loving support regarding environmental stimuli and unfamiliar people. An assertive single dog should live in the new family.

Geschlecht: Rüde Kastriert: ja Geburt: 2021 Herkunft: Bulgarien In Wörrstadt seit: 08.06.2024 Schulterhöhe/Gewicht: 57 cm / 22 Kg Rasse: Mischling Er liebt seine vertrauten Menschen, ist sehr anhänglich und will gerne Aufmerksamkeit. Allerdings ist er in seinem Wesen unsicher und unterwürfig, wenn ihm eine Situation zu viel ist. Das Geschirr findet er noch gruselig, ebenso wenn Zug auf die Leine kommt. Er hat schon gute Fortschritte gemacht. Knox braucht viel liebevolle Unterstützung bezüglich Umweltreizen und fremden Menschen. Ein souveräner Ersthund sollte in der neuen Familie leben.

About Knox

What life with Knox looks like

Knox is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutz Wörrstadt in Wörrstadt.

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇩🇪Adopting from Germany

German rescues typically require an in-person home visit (Vorkontrolle) or detailed video home check before approving adoption. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.

Frequently asked

Adopting Knox, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Knox?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutz Wörrstadt handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Knox on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Knox if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutz Wörrstadt will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Knox already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Knox isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Tierschutz Wörrstadt early rather than rehoming privately; they know Knox and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (DE). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
