They are ready to love you; are you ready to apply? Meet our big sweetheart, Onyx, an 8-year-old, 100-pound Black Labrador Retriever whose gentle presence touches the hearts of everyone he meets. Onyx has faced more than his share of ups and downs, finding himself twice in need of a new family despite being house-trained, loving, and a true gentleman. Through no fault of his own, he lost his first home, and then returned to a shelter after a brief stay with a second family who was unprepared for his exuberance and size. This handsome boy is currently thriving in his foster home, where he enjoys regular strolls, training sessions with his favorite trainer, and plenty of chances to show off his affectionate nature. Onyx may be a senior in years, but he has playful energy and joyful spirit typical of his breed. He delights in walks, playtime, and meeting people, and he even enjoys socializing with select canine friends—his favorite walking buddy is a boxer girl. Onyx would do best in a home with a yard or an adopter ready to keep him active and involved in daily adventures. He is ideal for an adult home or one with children who are prepared for his big, loving lab energy. Onyx is house trained, affectionate, smart, and eagerly participates in training sessions where he shines. He is well-mannered when left alone and brings endless love and loyalty to his people, making every day a little brighter. Onyx is searching for a committed family that will appreciate his fabulous personality and give him the loving forever home he deserves. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
