About Onion

Onion is a charming dog rescued from the Waterbury pound. He has a history of a broken femur, which left him with some lameness in his back legs. Despite this, he navigates his surroundings well and shows no shortage of energy. Onion's past wasn't kind; he may have been used for breeding, but he's ready to leave that behind and find a loving home. He gets along with dogs, cats, and even children, making him a perfect addition to a family environment. Onion is currently looking for a patient and caring adopter who can provide the love he deserves. He isn't house trained just yet, but with a little guidance, he'll learn quickly. His spayed and vaccinated status ensures he is ready for a new beginning. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
