FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME NEEDED Meet Onyx! Onyx is a 2-year-old, 43 lb Cattle Dog/Schipperke mix who came to us as a stray from an overcrowded shelter. This sturdy, medium-sized girl is full of personality ~ smart, goofy, sweet, and incredibly loving! Onyx is very people-oriented and eager to connect with her handler. She’s treat-motivated, eager to learn, and thrives when given guidance and structure. With her intelligence and willingness to please, she has so much potential to go far with continued training. She does great with other dogs and loves to play, though can be a little bossy in play at times, but it comes from her enthusiasm and playful nature. She’s also eager to meet other dogs and will benefit from continued socialization and guidance to keep those interactions positive and balanced. Onyx will also need some work on her leash manners, as she is quite strong for her size and still learning how to channel her excitement appropriately. Onyx is an active dog who will need a home that can keep up with her energy and provide both physical exercise and mental stimulation. She would love a lifestyle that includes hiking, exploring, and a consistent routine. Because busy environments can be overstimulating for her, she would do best in a quieter setting outside of dense city life. With the right home committed to her training, structure, and adventure needs, Onyx is going to make an incredibly loyal, fun, and devoted companion! Onyx is UTD on vaccinations, microchipped, and spayed. Her adoption fee is $500.
