My story

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

Onyx would make a great livestock guardian dog!!

Onyx is very stressed living in downtown Baltimore. A new environment was recommended by his trainer where he can thrive and be a happier pup. He has done an intensive board and train and has great training.

He is healthy, neutered and up-to-date on all shots, takes monthly preventatives and registered with Baltimore city. He currently takes one low cost medication to help manage stress. He is leash and car reactive.

He loves playing with toys, and will sleep by your side for hours. He has a cat buddy who he is gentle with.

+ will need someone experienced with resource guarding behavior. It requires management techniques, e.g. trading out toys and crate feeding.

+ housebroken, no accidents if you leave him alone, which can be for up to 4 hours if he doesn't have access to a backyard.

+ does not destroy furniture

+would make excellent guardian dog

+ would be able to deliver him in 100 mile radius of Baltimore, MD
