Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Onyx — A Fun-Loving, Active Girl
• Young, sweet, and bursting with happy energy
• A true people-dog who loves being close to her humans
• Brings the zoomies and excitement to playtime, then settles down beautifully
• House-trained and a champion sleeper through the night
• Big fan of toys and keeps her chewing right where it belongs
• Very social and can’t wait to meet other dogs — playtime is her favorite!
• On walks, her excitement may show up as pulling and happy barking when she spots a potential friend
• Greets people with joyful enthusiasm and is learning how to keep all four paws on the ground
• Alert and curious — she likes to let you know when something interesting is happening outside
• Super agile and athletic, always ready to move, explore, and have fun
• Will shine brightest with an active family who enjoys training, play, and adventure
• A home with room to roam and possibly another playful dog would be a dream come true
Onyx is a loving, lively young dog with so much potential. With consistency, activity, and lots of affection, she’ll be an amazing companion and adventure buddy.
Adopters have 30 days of free access to 1-on-1 text and email support from trainers at Petcademy to help make every pet's transition into their new home as smooth as possible. All dogs available for adoption have been spayed/neutered, microchipped and are current on all vaccinations. Please email dogs@henricohumane.org for more information.

Potential adopters are carefully screened to ensure we find the right forever home for the dogs and cats we rescue. Since animals live in foster homes, we get to know their personality and temperament. The adoption process allows us to learn about you, so that we can help find the perfect match for your home.
ADOPTION PROCESS
After finding a cat or dog that you are interested in, you'll need to complete an adoption application either online (https://henricohumane.org) or at an adoption stand. An adoption coordinator will review your application to ensure your situation matches the needs of the animal you're interested in. If completing an application online, please note, every question must be answered on the application for it to be reviewed by an adoption coordinator. As part of the review process, we'll request references. Because we are an all-volunteer organization, it may take up to 48 hours for an adoption coordinator to contact you.
ADOPTION FEES:
All of our adoption fee amounts can be found here:
https://www.henricohumane.org/adopt
The adoption fee covers the cost of shots, spay/neuter, microchipping and worm/flea treatments.

More about this rescue
Henrico Humane Society is an all-volunteer, foster-based,
non-profit organization that rescues dogs and cats from
across Central Virginia and places them in loving, forever
homes.
HHS has saved hundreds of animals each year since
1991. Many of the dogs and cats we rescue come from
shelters in rural areas where they have fewer adoption
opportunities. The majority of the animals in our care live
with foster parents until they find a permanent home.
We don't have a shelter and most of our animals live in foster homes until they're adopted, which allows us to get to know their personality and temperament. Applicants are carefully screened to ensure we find the right forever home for the dogs and cats we rescue. Our adoption process allows us to learn about potential adopters so we can help find the perfect matcher their home.
