Onyx is a 2 year old Rottie pup who is a really sweet but active boy.
Onyx still has a lot of puppy energy, so his parents need to be strong as he is a big boy.
He is very affectionate and loving. When his foster mom is standing next to him outside and tells him to sit, he immediately does so and then he'll offer his paw if she says "shake". Then if she asks "pets?", he puts his head up against her leg and he gets pets. By then he usually melts to the ground and ends up upside down begging for belly rubs.
He is very smart and sensitive. Positive reinforcement in the form of treats and verbal praise is highly effective to teach him replacement behaviors.
A home with a fully fenced yard would be ideal for him, as well as a family who can dedicate time for training, exploring and movement!
Onyx came from a high kill shelter where he was surrendered by his previous owner. He was very scared when we first got him, but with decompression, he has now settled down. He definitely needs a parent that has the time to work with him and be the alpha.
Onyx is currently about 80 lb and fully vaccinated, neutered, and microchipped. He is heartworm negative, and kept on heartworm and flea preventative.
He lives with 10 foster doggie siblings, and does well with them. He has not lived with kids in our care, so we do not know how he is going to be. We do not allow rotties to go to homes with children.
Sweet Onyx is being fostered in Texas, but can travel to any state, and even Canada for the right home. Rottweiler experience is mandatory to adopt our breed specific pups.
To meet this gorgeous pup via facetime or whatsapp or other video chat apps, please send a completed application via www.savesomesouls.com
Yards MUST BE adequately and fully fenced to adopt our pups. We do not accept electric or underground fences.

Interview
We will talk to you, your references, and vet, to make sure you and the pet are a good fit for each other.
3.
Meet the Pet
Once your application is approved, you get to meet the pet at our premise or at foster home. Meeting a pet does not guarantee adoption.
4.
Home Check
If the meet goes well, we do a homecheck. In some cases, facetime video works out fine, in some other, we go in person, depending on the dog
5.
Sign Adoption Contract
If approved for adoption, you sign the adoption contract, pay the adoption fee and we send you your new best friend.
6.
Take the Pet Home
Most of our pups are fostered in Texas, and can be transported out of state, for a cost of $250 - $300
Additional adoption info
Our adoption fees are $250 - $350 for most dogs. However, breed specific dogs and puppies cost more.
Special needs, & senior dogs may have a reduced fee. See individual dog profile for specific adoption fee.
If you choose one of our pets, please submit an initial adoption application available at www.savesomesouls.com to proceed further. We do not answer inquiries, without application, due to time constraint.
We spay/neuter our animals prior to adoption unless they are under 3 months old, for which we will require a spay/neuter agreement in place, and you will have to make a $150 deposit which will be refunded after we receive the proof of sterilization surgery. Once fixed, we transfer the pup's chip to you.
Out of town adopters must live in a city where we have our volunteers available, and the pet must be returned to us if it does not work out, so you have to hold them till we arrange transport.
Adoption approval is only final after meet and greet and homecheck are complete.
There are often multiple applications filled out for the same animal. In these cases our decision on which applicant adopts the animal is based solely on the best home for that animal after interview, all home visits, meet & greets and reference checks are complete.
If you are not selected to adopt one particular animal, it does not mean you can't adopt from us if your adoption application has been approved. We will work with you to find another animal in our rescue who will be the best fit for your home.

Our animal rescue section has been organized with very compassionate and dedicated volunteers whose only goal is to save a pet.
Each day hundreds of healthy, adoptable dogs and cats are euthanized in the kill-shelters of America. In Houston itself, we have the largest population of strays and our shelters are full with strays and abandoned animals including those surrendered by their owners because of reasons such as unwillingness to take care of them, pregnancy, divorce, loss of job, loss of home, prison intake, loss of compassion, empathy, you name it. Add to this, are abandoned pets on the side of the street by owners. Our mission is to give these puppies another chance at love and life. If every person will stop buying from breeders and adopt a shelter pet and spay and neuter them, we will be able to eradicate our euthanasia problem.
