Breed: Pit Bull Terrier mix?

Sex: Male

Neutered: Yes

Age: 12 months approx

Size: Medium

Color: Grey/blue with white chest

Coat: Smooth

Microchipped: Yes

Children: Not suitable for a home with small children

Other Dogs: Not suitable for a home with dogs

Cats: Not suitable for a home with cats

Notes: Onyx was seized from a horrendous situation where he was left in a crate for weeks at a time, forced to lay in his own mess. He was only fed every few days, and by time we got him, he was a walking skeleton. He did not show an interest in cats when introduced. He does not do well with male dogs, and would do best as an only dog. He would likely do fine with children, but he does have a lot of energy. Someone please give this boy a second chance. He is neutered, microchipped, and had a rabies and distemper vaccine. HIS ADOPTION IS SPONSORED.
