*** AVAILABLE ON-SITE STARTING WEDNESDAY 11/6 ***
Hi! Onyx is my name because I'm as black as onyx and just as shiny. Just look at my coat! It's silky and soft. I have been in my foster home for two weeks now and am learning so very many things. I have mastered 'sit' though oh man that's a hard one when treats are involved! My foster brother and sister have taught me how to 'shake' and I'm learning the commands called 'down' and 'lay down'. I will do absolutely anything for a treat. I love learning new tricks and commands since my brain is still growing.
My foster siblings are big dogs and I LOVE playing with them so much. I've met children of all ages, though I'm still learning to not jump on the ones my size. I love all people and haven't met a stranger yet. I love to cuddle on laps and on the couch and with my foster siblings and am content to lay down after a good tussle session with my siblings. I like hard and soft toys to chew for my growing teeth and my favorite thing is to play with the dogs in my house.
I am very good in my crate during the day with the command 'inside' and a little treat to get me to go in. I don't cry when you leave and am quiet in my crate for a full 8-9 hours during the work day and don't have any accidents inside it. During the day, I know to go to the back door to go potty outside, but sometimes my foster mom has missed my cue and I had an accident. Those are fewer and fewer between and I've only had one for the last week! At night, I'll get a bit of FOMO (fear of missing out) and have to be coaxed to 'go to bed' which is the command I know to go into my crate and go to sleep. I sleep through the night, a full eight hours, which my foster mom is grateful for. (Why do humans need so much sleep???)
I've started to learn about a harness and walk on a leash. I've been told I'm doing very well with that and am starting to learn what 'let's go for a walk' means. It means I get to SNIFF and EXPLORE and I absolutely LOVE that. There's so many new smells and people to meet!
I've been told I'm incredibly sweet and loving and I would love to find my family and give them all of my love. Where are you? I'm waiting!

All puppies and dogs at Saving Grace are crate trained, have been spayed/neutered, are up to date on their vaccines, are on heartworm preventative and have been microchipped. Their adoption fee is $350.00. Each has been carefully screened for disposition and temperament in order to provide your home with a safe companion that will enjoy life as your new family member.
If you are interested in meeting one of our dogs, please complete an Adoption Application at our website: savinggracenc.org
Sending an Application does not commit you to an adoption, it simply provides us with background information on potential homes. Please review our Adoption Contract before sending an Application to ensure that you will be able to provide the requirements stated in the contract. The Contract must be signed at the time of adoption.
Saving Grace is a small, non-profit 501-C3 organization operated by volunteers only. Most of our animals come from rural animal control shelters where lack of space and resources limit their time and adoption possibilities. Thank you for choosing Saving Grace! We look forward to helping you find your new companion and family member.

More about this rescue
Located in central North Carolina and officially established in 2004, Saving Grace has placed over 15,000 dogs into homes since its inception. These dogs were from rural animal control facilities with little resources and who would otherwise not had the opportunity to receive necessary veterinary care and a chance at adoption. While we have grown significantly over the years and have been successful growing our numbers we still see many great dogs miss the opportunity of adoption.
We have a large variety of dogs varying in breed, size, shape, age and needs and would love to work with you to find you a great dog companion while providing a dog in need with a loving home. Our dogs are chosen based on temperament and socialization. We get some of the most charming, unique mix breeds as well as some striking purebreds. Our dogs come from rural, underserved areas and while they may have little experience as an indoor family member, they have the temperament and personality that is sure to bring much love and appreciation to their new home. Most have started their crate training while in our program. Veterinary care including spay/neuter, microchip, heartworm test, vaccinations, monthly preventatives are provided prior to each adoption. If you would like more information about adopting one of our dogs, please email savinggrace@savinggracenc.org
