Onyx

Meet Onyx! Handsome Onyx is looking for a very special home with someone who can give him the time, patience and understanding he needs to feel safe. When Onyx first arrived in our care, he was absolutely terrified. He would hide away in the corner of his kennel, too frightened to interact with anyone. If approached, he would growl, not out of malice, but because he was scared and didn’t know who he could trust. Over the last few weeks, we have slowly started to see a different side to this lovely boy. With gentle handling, patience and plenty of reassurance, Onyx has begun to come out of his shell, and underneath all that fear is a very sweet, affectionate little lad. Once Onyx feels comfortable in your company, he really does enjoy a fuss and some affection. However, he is still easily startled by sudden movements and remains unsure in unfamiliar situations.
