Could you give Onyx the loving home he's missing? 🐈‍⬛✨

This majestic boy is Onyx, a big, beautiful sweetheart with a gentle and affectionate personality!

Onyx spent 11 years with his previous owner, but sadly, due to circumstances beyond her control, she had to make the difficult decision to return him to Pets Alive. Now back at the shelter, Onyx is adjusting to his new surroundings, but what he'd really love is a cozy couch or bed and someone to cuddle up beside.

This sweet boy deserves another chance at a loving home where he can enjoy the comfort and companionship he's known for so many years.

Pets Alive Alumni Update: Tuscaloosa 🐶💫
Remember Tusca? This sweet girl has been busy living the good life, and we couldn't be happier for her! ❤️

From spending her summer in Florida to making friends at doggy daycare in New York, Tusca has become quite the social butterfly! 🦋 She even attended a doggy birthday party recently! 🎂🐕

Her days are filled with long hikes, walks, playtime, and LOTS of love and cuddles. At night, she snuggles up in bed with her family, and during the day, you'll find her curled up on her heating pad.

Tusca has always had a big personality and plenty of energy, and with patience, training, socialization, and lots of love, she's learning to channel that excitement and growing more confident every day! ❤️

And her adventures aren't slowing down! Next up? A trip to Virginia to visit her new doggy cousins! 🐾🚗

Her family says it best: "We love her so much!" ❤️

Thank you to Tusca's wonderful family for giving her the love, patience, and adventures she deserves. Happy tails, sweet girl! 🐶💕
