ently weighing 39 pounds but expected to add a few more pounds as she transitions into adulthood, Onyx is the perfect size for families looking for a loyal companion who is just as happy joining in on adventures as she is curling up beside you at the end of the day. With her sleek short black and tan coat, soulful eyes, and gentle heart, this sweet girl is ready to leave her difficult past behind and discover what it truly means to be loved. Onyx can be a little shy when meeting new people, but do not let her quiet nature fool you. Beneath that timid first impression is a loving, affectionate dog who blossoms with patience, kindness, and encouragement. Every day she grows a little more confident, revealing the sweet personality that has been waiting to shine. She is wonderful with children and enjoys the company of other dogs, making her a lovely addition to many types of families. Her history with cats, though, is unknown. With a medium energy level, Onyx is the perfect balance of playful and relaxed. She enjoys leisurely neighborhood walks where she can explore the world by your side, and her good leash manners make those outings especially enjoyable. Trips to the local park to make new canine friends, time spent playing with a favorite toy in the backyard or simply lounging nearby while you enjoy a quiet afternoon are all things that will help her continue building confidence in her new home. Onyx is a girl that delivers and has successfully mastered her house and crate training. All her hard work as paid off. Although she is house trained, accidents can occur while adjusting to a new home environment. When the excitement of the day winds down, Onyx transforms into the ultimate cuddle companion. Her happiest moments are spent snuggled up on the couch with the people she loves, soaking up every bit of affection she has waited so long to receive. She is not looking for anything extravagant because she just needs a family who will see the incredible dog behind her shy exterior and promise her the safety, love, and forever she deserves. If you have been searching for a loyal best friend who will reward your patience with unwavering devotion, Onyx may be the missing piece of your family. Open your heart to this sweet girl, and you will gain a faithful companion whose gratitude and love will last a lifetime. Apply for Onyx today and you just might discover that your forever friend has been waiting for you all along. * When considering adoption, keep in mind that dogs thrive on structure and routine. They adjust much better when their owners are committed to providing consistency and stability. The adoption fee for Onyx is $500. That includes the cost of spaying/neutering, up to date vaccinations, foster care, rescue and transportation fees. To get the ball rolling, head over to our Adoption Application and submit your application today. A Dog Star representative will contact you within 24 hours. To speed up the process, contact your vet and give them permission to speak with us. If you do not get a response within 24 hours, check your spam folder.

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
