My story

I am a serious cuddler. Netflix? Bring it on. Reading a book? I'll be there until the end, even if it was a bad ending. I love my humans more than you can possibly imagine. Babies? Awesome. Grannies? Them, too! And you? You are the sunshine of my life. I'm Onyx Lee, I’m about 5 years old, I'm fully house trained, I’m crate trained, I weigh about 58 pounds, and you are all I want. Basically, I’m an ideal family dog!

Other things about me: I actually prefer to sleep in my crate at night - it's a safe place to me. I love to play ball, be in your lap (just making sure you know), and take long walks or go on runs with you. I can easily do 4-5 miles! My foster momma says I am the easiest dog they've ever had; I'm pretty much perfect. My foster momma also says that I am gentle and patient with kids of all ages, easy-going, smart, curious, and energetic. I like to have peaceful walks without other animals, but my foster momma keeps telling me that other dogs can walk, too, and I'm learning to be OK with it.

I'm basically just a loving teddy bear who wants to cuddle on the couch all night. One thing I don't like much? Kitties. No kitties for me, please. My story? I was rescued with my babies and they have all found loving homes. Now it's my turn! Apply to meet me today and you'll get to see perfection in person!September 21, 2023, 1:20 pm

Additional adoption info

All of our animals come fully vaccinated and spayed or neutered (if old enough), and microchipped. Puppies and kittens will be spayed/neutered and have all shots when they are old enough. There is an Adoption application, a quick phone interview to make sure it is a good fit, a meet and greet with the dog, then a home check, and an adoption contract. We ask for a $400 donation for adult dogs, and $500 for puppies at the time of adoption so that we can save other dogs from the shelter. The first step is to fill out an app here: https://thelittlereddog.org/adoption-form

More about this rescue

Dogs are man's best friend, but it is not always the other way around. The Little Red Dog was founded in memory of a little red American Pit Bull Terrier who did not make it. If you are familiar with the Michael Vick dog fighting case chronicled in The Lost Dogs: Michael Vick's Dogs and Their Tale of Rescue and Redemption. The Little Red Dog was brutally beaten to death by Vick and his cronies because she didn't want to fight.

The Little Red Dog rescues dogs; red, blue, tan, white, brown, black and all colors in between. We do not discriminate against ANY breed; that's because we are a real rescue, and we will help as many animals as we can. Our primary goal is to get them into loving homes. Our hope that some day all of them make it, but most of all, we will never forget the Little Red Dog and many others who did not.
