Knuckles

My story

Meet Knuckles – Your Velcro-Hearted Shadow and Cuddle Pro! 💚🐾 Knuckles is a 9-month-old small-breed mix with a big personality and an even bigger heart. This fuzzy little lovebug is a certified cuddle connoisseur, and he’s on a mission to find his forever person to hug, adore, and follow around like the loyal best friend he was born to be. Affectionate and endearing, Knuckles loves to stand on his hind legs to give gentle hugs while gazing at you like you’re his entire world—because, to him, you are. This brave boy recently battled parvovirus and made a full, speedy recovery, charming every vet and staff member along the way. His resilience is matched only by his sweetness, and now that he's healthy, he's ready to bring joy to a loving home. Knuckles can be a little shy when meeting new people—especially men—but with some treats, a soft voice, and a gentle touch, he warms up quickly. Every day is a new adventure for him, and he’s still learning that loud or sudden noises aren’t scary—so patience and reassurance go a long way. Quirky? Oh yes. Here are some adorable Knuckles facts: He insists on non-tip bowls (otherwise he’ll flip them like a tiny, fuzzy waiter). He doesn’t like peanut butter—nope, not even the fancy kind. Every treat and toy gets proudly marched back to his bed. He’s tidy and adorable! Once Knuckles bonds with you, you’ve got a loyal companion for life. He’s not just a dog; he’s your shadow, your snuggle buddy, and your heart on four legs. If you're looking for a lifelong best friend who’ll stick by you through thick and thin (and probably sleep with his head on your feet), Knuckles is ready to choose you.
