Meet Onyx, a lovable almost five-year-old purebred American Bully from Jacksonville, FL, whose joyful spirit is wrapped in a handsome black-and-white coat and a personality that shines brightest when he’s surrounded by his people!
Onyx is a true companion pup—playful, affectionate, and always up for belly rubs and some quality couch time. He’s medium-sized and is perfectly content napping in his crate or lounging in his favorite bed after a good session with his squeaky toys or chewing on a bone. But don’t let the laid-back vibes fool you—this guy thrives on attention, outdoor time, and being part of a daily routine.
Onyx knows several commands like “sit,” “stay,” “come,” and “no,” and he responds especially well when there’s a treat involved! Speaking of treats—he loves food. Onyx is on a limited ingredient lamb-based diet due to allergies to chicken, beef, turkey, and potatoes, and he’ll need a caregiver who can help him stick to that. He’s known to be a bit of a food bandit, so food awareness is key. Think: baby locks on the snack cabinet level of determination!
Vaccinated, crate trained and house-trained, Onyx does well when left alone for short periods, but he really blossoms with consistent attention and exercise. Without it, he may mark indoors as a way of expressing his unmet need for engagement. A home with a fenced yard where he can roam, sniff, and enjoy fresh air would be a dream. He’s very friendly with other dogs and does well with young children, making him a wonderful addition to a family ready to give him the structure and love he needs to be at his best.
His most endearing trait? The way he leans into affection and lives for human connection. Onyx is looking for his next loving family that will include him in their day-to-day life, where belly rubs are abundant and companionship is part of the routine.
