Onyx

Onyx

Onyx

Onyx

Approximate age:

1 and a half years
Date arrived at Sanctuary:

July 2024

Where from:

Mother Odette and siblings were dumped near the shelter

Story:

Onyx and his mother Odette and 3 siblings were brought to DAS by their owner who planned to surrender them.  Sadly, the sanctuary was unable to take any more rescues and anyway, DAS can not accept owner surrenders otherwise we would be inundated. So the owners just went behind the sanctuary and tied Odette to a tree were she and her puppies were later found by staff.

Onyx's siblings were both adopted but he has remained at the sanctuary with his Mum.  He is the liveliest of young dogs and loves nothing better than to tussle with his playmates all day, except if his hoomans are around when he just loves to play with them too!
