Meet Knox, a one year old Pit mix weighing around 60 pounds.

Knox is a lovable goober with a big heart and an even bigger love for walk time! This friendly guy is always happy to say hello and will quickly win you over with his goofy charm. He already knows "sit" and is very treat motivated, which makes him a breeze to train. Whether you're out exploring the neighborhood or just hanging out at home, Knox is the kind of dog who brings joy wherever he goes.

Knox has met another dog with us and did very well, he was playful and enthusiastic when he realized they would be able to meet. We think Knox could do well in a home with another playful, higher energy dog or as an only dog. If you're looking for a fun, trainable, and affectionate companion, Knox is ready to be your new best friend!

This pet is available for adoption on 7/20/2025 at 10:29 AM at the Yakima Humane Society adoption center. If you recognize this animal please contact the adoption center at 509-457-6854.

Did you know YHS offers a "Foster to Adopt" program?
It's a fun way to make sure you and your potential new pet are the perfect match-like a sleepover, but with extra cuddles! Spend a little time together before making things official. It's a win-win! Just stop by the front desk and ask how to get started.

Ready to adopt?
Great news-our spayed/neutered pets are available to go home the same day! You can visit us in person, give us a call, or apply online-whatever works best for you.
For online adoptions please fill out our quick adoption questionnaire here: https://yakimahumane.org/adopt/apply/

Your adoption fee includes:
A lovable new companion, spay/neuter surgery, vaccinations + deworming, flea/tick treatment, rabies vaccine (for pets 3-4 months and older), and microchip with nationwide registration.
Every adoption helps support YHS and our community spay/neuter programs to end pet overpopulation.

Questions?
We'd love to hear from you! Email us at [email protected], call us, or just stop by.

Let's help you meet your new best friend!
