Onyx - Labrador Retriever Male Dog For Adoption in Brooklyn, New York, USA

Dog Breed: Labrador Retriever (medium coat).

Meet our big sweetheart, Onyx — an 8 yr old, 100 lb Lab touchs the hearts of all he meets. This precious boy is waiting for his forever home. Onyx was first brought to a shelter in Florida- he was clearly well-loved, house-trained, and lost his home through no fault of his own, Then, in a heartbreaking turn, what was supposed to be a fresh start with a family in NJ ended with him back in a shelter. This was no fault of his. The family just was not ready for all his fabulous glory (size and lab energy). Within 48 hours of his arrival in NJ, he was back behind kennel bars. This poor boy! Onyx is thriving in his foster home. He gets regular strolls through the neighborhood, meets with one of our favorite trainers, and is a regular socialite. At 8 years young, Onyx still has his lab energy and zest for joy! He loves walks, playtime, and meeting humans. With the right dog, he loves going on a parallel walk. His favorite walking partner, aside from foster momma, is a boxer girl. Our ebony boy would do best in a home with a yard or one that can help him get out and about regularly. With abundant love, loyalty, affection, and Lab heart-melting moments, Onyx makes every day sweeter and more precious. Due to his size, Onyx would do well in an adult home or one with kids that are ready of 100 lbs of rock and roll action. He’s affectionate, intelligent, gregarious, and playful. He is a gentleman when left home alone and housebroken. Onyx LOVES training and going to ‘school’. He takes on each lesson with enthusiasm and responds quickly. Onyx deserves his own family and a home with love, and someone who sees the goodest of the good boy inside.
