About Onyx

Onyx is a 1.5-year-old mixed breed with a curious spirit and a bright personality. He picked up walking on a leash quickly and seems to be potty trained, making him a great companion for someone ready to get out and explore the world together. This handsome boy loves to check out everything around him and approaches life with a sense of curiosity and adventure. Onyx came in with another dog and has done well with his canine friend. With proper, slow introductions, he seems like he would do well with other dogs in his new home. Onyx would thrive with a family that enjoys an engaged, inquisitive dog and is ready to include him in daily activities. If you’re looking for a smart, curious companion to share life’s little adventures with, Onyx might just be your guy!
