My name is Onyx (Gem Litter)!

A true black beauty with a big heart and a bright mind.

Onyx is friendly, loving, and deeply people focused. He listens well, picks things up quickly, and wants nothing more than your attention. He has no aggression at all. He simply wants to be close to his people and part of whatever is happening. He has been well loved and it shows in his manners and confidence.

He is crate trained and continues to improve on leash. Walks are one of his favorite things. He happily greets people he meets along the way and mostly ignores other dogs, keeping his focus where it belongs. Onyx loves fetch and already knows sit, stay, and lay down. He is smart and eager, the kind of dog who enjoys learning and showing you what he knows.

Onyx has lived successfully with three children and does beautifully with kids. He is patient, gentle, and engaged, making him a wonderful family dog. He would thrive in a home that has time to give him the attention and companionship he truly deserves.

Onyx was adopted from OPH as a puppy and has been well cared for ever since. Due to unexpected medical and financial hardship, his family made the heartbreaking decision to return him so he can find stability again. He is ready to shine in a new home and give his whole heart to the next family lucky enough to choose him.
