Knox

Husky · Male · Young · 3 years

Meet the beautiful Knox! Knox arrived at Battersea as he did not get on with the cat in the home and is now looking for a new cat free home to settle down in! Knox has a lovely history from his previous home with his owner describing him as 'very friendly with people and children of all ages'. He is a wonderful example of his breed, and has been a fun, friendly, excitable boy on site. Knox does exhibit some typical Husky traits, he can be unsure around handling, vocal in play and does show chase behaviours towards wildlife. Knox will be looking for new owners with some previous experience with Huskies who will be knowledgeable in their breed traits and comfortable managing his ongoing training. Although he can be aloof initially (in typical Husky fashion), once he makes friends he is super affectionate, and becomes very excited whenever he sees his people! So if you're looking for a fun, loyal boy who will always greet you with love and happy Husky awhoos, look no further, for sweet Knox could be the one for you! If you have already completed our online rehoming form and would like to know more about Knox, you can e-mail our rehoming team on to register your interest.

About Knox

What life with Knox looks like

Knox is a medium-sized young adult husky dog waiting at Battersea Dogs & Cats Home in London.

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 United Kingdom

UK shelters work under the Pet Travel Scheme (post-Brexit, the EU pet passport is not valid; a UK Animal Health Certificate is required for travel into the EU). Most UK rescues focus on domestic placements but some work with EU partners.

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. Battersea Dogs & Cats Home 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 — Battersea Dogs & Cats Home 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. UK adopters: post-Brexit travel into the EU requires an Animal Health Certificate. 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 Battersea Dogs & Cats Home 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 (EN). 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.
