In the shelter’s words

(DOB 08/11/2026) Due to Onyx’s young age, he has not been neutered yet. For this reason, we are only considering local placement (within a 1-hour drive time of Wake Forest NC). This handsome little guy is curious, clever, playful, and full of puppy love! He’s always ready for an adventure, a game, or a well-earned nap after a busy day of exploring. Onyx needs a playful canine sibling to show him the ropes and a securely fenced yard for all his puppy zoomies. Older kids are best since little ones may not appreciate puppy jumping and playful nibbles. With early introductions, he will likely learn to live happily with cats, too!Onyx is looking for a family with plenty of time for love, patience, positive-reinforcement training, and all the fun (and occasional chaos!) of puppyhood. Potty training, crate training, socialization walks, and learning good manners are all part of the adventure.If you’re ready for puppy kisses, silly antics, and watching a little guy grow into an amazing companion, Onyx is ready to meet you! As part Onyx’s $325 adoption fee, he will be neutered, microchipped, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, and current on his monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives. In addition to the adoption fee, a $100 spay/neuter deposit and puppy spay/neuter agreement will also be required. The deposit will be returned once the puppy is altered. If you have questions about this sweet pup, you can email: Dogteam@pawsforlifenc.org. If you wish to adopt Onyx, you can complete an application online for him under the Adopt a Pet Tab on our website: www.pawsforlifenc.org.
