Introducing...
Onyx!
Howdy, Let me introduce myself. My name is Onyx and I am approximately three years old and a real loverboy. I love to play with other dogs but dont really like the whole cat thing. I am completely house broken and I am also crate trained. I have been known to walk sneak out with the toddler and follow her around the block and make sure she stays out of danger, so im a great babysitter also! They say I have very unique markings and ladies in the neighborhood can't keep their eyes off of me. I'm a real ladies man!!!!! HUBA-HUBA, if you know what I mean. If your looking for a fellow to take long walks with, snuggle and watch a good movie with or just sit by a warm fire, I am your man. Contact me by calling my gal Marci at 435-882-2085. With Love, Onyx XOXOXOXO
Tooele Animal Outreach is a Tooele County-based rescue group that routinely rescues dogs and cats from local shelters into our growing foster program, where the animals stay until they are adopted into permanent, loving homes.
We operate strictly on adoption fees and generous donations from caring people like you. The money we get is used to benefit dogs and cats in our program in many ways. It helps us buy pet food and necessary pet care supplies, but more importantly, it allows us to pay for medical care for the animals we're trying to save. Here's an example...
Deek, a handsome, sweet black labrador retriever, came in to the Grantsville Animal Shelter in October as a stray. Sadly, his owners never called to find him, which turned out to be a HUGE blessing for Deek. After a few days in the shelter, we noticed that Deek had some raw flesh, um, "back there," and it was obvious that he was very uncomfortable. We rushed him into our group's veterinarian (Thanks, Dr. Gowans and crew!), where the doc determined that Deek's former owners had tried to castrate him by cinching a rubber band around his testicles. POOR DEEK! Can you imagine how much this must have hurt? Anyway, Dr. Gowans performed an immediate neuter on Deek, but because of the infection that had set in, Deek required extra procedures and was fitted with a temporary drain tube to ease out the remaining infection.
Here's the good news! Deek recovered in one of our foster homes and has been adopted into his forever family, where he is flourishing with his playmate. Donations from people like you helped us pay for Deek's surgery, which was around $300. Every little bit helps, so if you're considering making a donation to help other dogs like Deek, rest assured that your donation--no matter how big or small--will be used with care to benefit animals in need.
By the way, you can also visit the Grantsville City Animal Shelter's site or the Tooele City Animal Shelter's site for more adoptable animals in Tooele County. You can also call the Tooele County shelter at 435-882-1051, or the Stockton City shelter at 435-882-3877.
Stay tuned for upcoming adoptions, spay and neuter opportunities, and other animal related events. For a list of events in Tooele County, the Salt Lake City area and beyond, please visit the No More Homeless Pets of Utah Events Calendar for more information.
Even if you're not ready for the commitment required to adopt a new pet, please support the homeless pets in your area in other ways. Donate to your favorite animal charity, or volunteer at your local animal shelter. A little bit goes a long way, so please find it in your heart to donate the whole year through. You can find your local shelter by visiting www.hsus.org.

Please continue to watch www.petfinder.com, and tell your family, friends, co-workers, neighbors, grocery store cashiers, school teachers, postal workers, and everyone you meet to do the same. There's never a shortage of animals who need new, loving homes... petfinder.com and you is the perfect partnership for helping them do just that.
