Meet Onyx! 🖤
Onyx is a sweet, smart, and loyal pup who’s eager to please and full of love! He’s fully house trained and kennel trained, and he knows several commands — sit, lay, shake, and sometimes stay. He’s working hard on his manners, especially not jumping up when he’s excited, and he’s making great progress.

Onyx loves being close to his people and will happily hop into your lap for cuddles. He’s especially bonded with the girls in his foster home and is learning to feel more comfortable around men — he’s already built a positive relationship with the adult male in the house, and they now play and even snuggle together!

He enjoys walks and is doing well with leash training, especially since he’s so food-motivated. Sometimes he still gets a little excited when he spots another dog or a squirrel, but he’s improving every day.

Onyx is good with kids, cats, and dogs. He does resource guard his food and bones, but he manages this well by eating in his kennel — he knows the routine and goes right in when it’s mealtime.

He loves tug-of-war, the occasional game of fetch, and being part of family life. With continued guidance and love, Onyx will make a devoted, affectionate companion for a lucky family! 🐾

The best way to show interest in an animal is to submit an adoption application by visiting our website (www.rescuenetworkmn.org).

Adoption fee includes spay/neuter, all age-appropriate vaccinations (Distemper, Rabies, and Bordetella), heartworm and flea/tick preventatives, heartworm test (dogs), FIV/FeLV test (cats), dewormed, and microchip implant (including registration).

Rescue Network is strictly foster based which means all adoptable animals are in a home and there cannot be a meet until an application is submitted and approved. We have no way of knowing the breeds in the animals. All breeds listed are a best guess.
