How do I contact the shelter about ONYX?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tier-Not-Hilfe handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw ONYX on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt ONYX if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tier-Not-Hilfe will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.

Is ONYX already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?

Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.

What happens if ONYX isn't the right fit?

Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Tier-Not-Hilfe early rather than rehoming privately; they know ONYX and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.

Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?

TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (DE). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.

ONYX

Labrador Retriever · Male · Adult · 5 years

Onyx - a beautiful black Labrador mix - 5 years old, born 04/2021 - Onyx comes: vaccinated, chipped, neutered and with EU passport. - Waiting in France - Onyx is a beautiful Labrador mix, his coat is soft and slightly longer, probably his ancestors also include a Flat-Coat Retriever. In France, they are called -golden noir-, so Golden Retriever in black. Onyx was born in April 2021. More is not known about his past. He is not shy, goes openly and friendly to people and is -breed-typically- very attached. He is clearly not mistreated, knows the basic commands. Probably his owners lost their house and could not or did not want to take him with them to an apartment. Onyx shares the drab kennel with a female, there are absolutely no problems. Whether he would share the blanket with a strange male, we cannot test in the stress of a killing station, but if you walk past other males with him at the kennel, they are not barked at, he is much more interested in people. His coat has a really beautiful deep black, the two white spots make him unique. Black dogs are said to be difficult to place. Fortunately, I am finding more and more that I am not the only one who loves black dogs. Who gives this great dog a chance at a new life in a family?

ONYX - ein wunderschöner schwarzer Labbi-Mix - 5 J., geb. 04.2021 - Onyx kommt: geimpft, gechippt, kastriert u. mit EU-Paß. - Wartet in Frankreich - ONYX ist ein wunderschöner Labrador-Mischling, sein Fell ist weich und etwas länger, vermutlich findet man bei seinen Vorfahren auch einen Flat-Coat-Retriever. In Frankreich werden Sie -golden noir- genannt, also Golden Retriever in schwarz. ONYX wurde geboren im April 2021. Mehr ist aber über seine Vergangenheit nichts bekannt. Er ist nicht handscheu, geht offen und freundlich auf Menschen zu und ist -rassetypisch- sehr anhänglich. Er ist eindeutig nicht misshandelt worden, kennt die Grundkommandos. Vermutlich haben seine Besitzer ihr Haus verloren und konnten oder wollten ihn nicht mit in eine Wohnung nehmen. Onyx teilt sich den tristen Zwinger mit einer Hündin, da gibt es absolut keine Probleme. Ob er sich mit einem fremden Rüden die Decke teilen würde, können wir in dem Stress einer Tötungsstation nicht testen, aber wenn man mit ihm am Zwinger von anderen Rüden vorbeigeht, werden sie nicht verbellt, er ist viel mehr an Menschen interessiert. Sein Fell hat ein richtig schönes tiefes Schwarz, die beiden weißen Stellen machen ihn einzigartig. Schwarzen Hunden sagt man nach, sie seien schwer vermittelbar. Zum Glück stelle ich immer häufiger fest, dass ich nicht die Einzige bin, die schwarze Hunde liebt. Wer gibt diesem tollen Hund die Chance auf ein neues Leben in einer Familie ? Mehr Info u.

About ONYX

What life with ONYX looks like

ONYX is a adult labrador retriever dog waiting at Tier-Not-Hilfe in Germany.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇩🇪Adopting from Germany

German rescues typically require an in-person home visit (Vorkontrolle) or detailed video home check before approving adoption. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.
