Meet Onyx, a handsome 7-year-old, 80-pound black Shepherd mix with a big heart and an even bigger love for his people. Onyx originally came to Dallas Pets Alive through our Dogs Matter program while his owner focused on their recovery. Ultimately, his owner made the incredibly brave and loving decision to surrender him so he could have the stability and future he deserves.
Onyx is the total package. He is neutered, crate trained, potty trained, and up to date on his vaccines. He does well with kids, cats, and other dogs, and while he still has plenty of playful, high-energy moments, he is also incredibly gentle and sweet. He is the kind of dog who can keep up with activity and then settle in for affection when the fun is over.
Onyx has already experienced a lot of change, but he has handled it with so much resilience. Now he is ready for a forever family who will give him consistency, companionship, and plenty of love. If you are looking for a big, beautiful, playful Shepherd mix with a soft side, Onyx may be your guy.
