Onyx is a handsome boy with a mysterious past, but what's clear is that he's looking for a family who understands that building trust takes time, patience, and love. He's a cautious observer when meeting new people or dogs, preferring to take things slow and decide on his own terms when he's ready to engage. Once he trusts you, he blossoms into an incredibly loyal companion. He enjoys his daily walks, politely sits for his leash, and is crate trained with excellent house manners. Onyx is eager to please and knows several commands, including sit, shake, leave it, watch, down, come, and stay. He's gentle when taking treats and enjoys relaxing with a bone or a toy. Watching him learn to simply be a dog has been a joy, and he's ready for a family who will believe in him and celebrate his progress.
