My story

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


Onyx needs a new home! He has been through training and knows 30 commands in English. He is a good boy but has food anxiety as well as a couple of fears. His family was unable to keep him due to a new baby since he is a large dog and it is not known whether he is good with children so we feel rehoming him is best. He is 7 years old and lived with cats when he was a puppy, he probably would be good with cats, but has a prey drive when on walks. He has never lived with other dogs and has some anxiety around them but seems to like larger female dogs. He listens well as long as you stay on top of working with him on commands. He once fought off an entire pack of coyotes! He also chased off an intruder before. He has always had high quality food and is up to date on shots. Onyx will spend most of the day sleeping and relaxing as he is older now (almost 7) and is active but only for short spurts. He is happy in a crate most of the day with breaks.
