My personality

My story

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

✨ Meet Onyx — The Big Brother With an Even Bigger Heart! ✨

If you're looking for the perfect combo of snuggly sweetheart and confidently independent explorer… say hello to Onyx!

This handsome hunk is the biggest of his brothers (and a whole year older, so technically the “wise elder”), but don’t let that fool you—he’s just a big baby who loves to curl right into your lap like he’s fun-sized.

💎 Why You’ll Love Him:

Certified Snuggle Machine: Onyx lives for affection. If there's an open lap, he’s in it.

Independent King: When he’s not soaking up love, he’s off exploring, minding his own business, or supervising the household like the responsible older brother he is.

Crate Trained Cutie: He might whimper a bit if you’re nearby—because FOMO is real—but he settles quickly.

Potty Training? Almost There! He’ll do great with a consistent schedule and quick potty breaks (no time for marking when he’s busy being adorable).

Kid-Friendly: Loves everyone, including the tiny humans.

Dog-Friendly: Approaches dogs politely with a calm “hey, wanna hang?” vibe.

Car Superstar: Cool, calm, and ready for adventure.

Leash Enthusiast: Walks with excitement—like every stroll is a parade in his honor.

Sensitive Soul: Loud noises (think fireworks or vacuums) aren’t his fave, but he handles life like a champ.

Food? He may get slightly protective over the good stuff—understandable, honestly—but with structure he’ll thrive.

✨ In short: Onyx is the ideal mix of affectionate, friendly, eager-to-please, and gently independent. Whether you’re looking for a couch companion, a walking buddy, or a sweet boy to adore forever… he’s your guy.
