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.

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…
