Meet Knuckleball, the gentle giant of the litter!  Knuckleball is the largest and most striking pup in the bunch, with a heart as big as his size. He's incredibly sweet and adores playing with people, forming deep connections with those he welcomes into his world. 

​

His interactions with other dogs and cats are respectful and he gets along with his furry companions quite well. However, Knuckleball has a unique personality trait that requires a bit of understanding and patience. When meeting new people, he can become easily overwhelmed and may exhibit some initial apprehension. In such situations, he tends to snap at strangers if cornered or they try to pick him up, which is his way of communicating discomfort. Knuckleball is a wonderful pup who can thrive in the right environment and with proper socialization. 

​

His potential to become a loving and devoted family member is undeniable, provided his new family is willing to work on helping him overcome his initial reservations with strangers. If you're prepared to invest the time and effort needed to help Knuckleball build confidence in new social situations, you'll be rewarded with a loyal and loving companion who'll stand by your side through thick and thin.
