My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

This is a write up by our foster Tammy Foster did on Onyx.

This is our Onyx from AC about 4 years ago. She was paralyzed with fear so she appeared aggressive to some. And, of course being a Pit she was never adopted. Kris and Brooke kept working with her and saw the goodness in her and asked us to foster. Within a day she was running around with my stupids having a blast!!!!! She was adopted to a great couple who spent a lot of time with her and adored her despite her lack of trust. Unfortunately the couple separated and the woman's living situation is such that she can't have pets:(

So we picked her up yesterday and will wait for her to find the right home. She has come out of her shell tremendously!!!! She still trusts when she's ready but she is a dear, sweet, beautiful, loving, smart girl with all the great qualities of a Pit!!!! We just adore her and are glad to have her back!! This picture makes her look huge, she's really very tiny😊
