Hi…my name is Onyx.
The lady who found me (in Rancho Sahuarita’s North Park) only had me for a day, but she said that during that time I LOVED her kids (ages 4, 6, 7, and 13), got along famously with her dog, and ignored her cat (although it wasn’t in the same room, so she wasn’t too sure about that!). She said that I still have a lot of “puppy” in me and that I love to play (a bit “rambunctious” is the word she used!), but that I was generally very gentle and tolerant. I’m a black Lab/heeler mix boy with a bit of speckled white on my chest and feet and a natty white strip down my nose. I weigh 51 pounds now, and that’s probably pretty much where I’ll stay except for filling out my lanky body a bit. Although I know “sit” pretty well, I’m going to need someone who will provide consistent training in all the other “good dog” areas, so I’m hoping that a person who has had experience in that department is just around the corner looking for another canine to add to his or her list of successes!
