Meet Onyx, the ultimate chill companion. During his short stay in foster, he’s proven to be calm, snuggly, and wonderfully easy to have around. He settles beautifully in new places: curling up in the car, the office, or on a cozy dog bed while you work. Once he warms up, he becomes a shadow pup who follows you around, seeks affection, and enjoys gentle play with toys. He’s food motivated, knows “sit,” walks great on an EZ Walk, and does excellent in his crate. Small, sweet, and unbelievably cuddly, Onyx is the perfect little pittie waiting to melt someone’s heart.
