Notes from Rose Acres Rescue
Meet Onyx – The Smart, Spirited Adventurer
Onyx is a handsome 5-year-old Lab/Kelpie mix weighing about 45 lbs. This intelligent, high-energy boy loves to stay active and is always ready for a new adventure!
He’s doing wonderfully with his training — mastering commands, basic obedience, crate training, and housebreaking like a pro. Onyx came to the rescue heartworm positive, but he’s completed treatment and is now heartworm negative and healthy!
Onyx gets along well with kids and other dogs, but he would do best in a home without cats.
He has been neutered, fully vaccinated, and dewormed.
Adoption Fee: $250
If you’re looking for a loyal, intelligent companion who’s always up for fun and affection, Onyx is ready to join you on life’s next adventure!
