===Exercise Issue===
On December 19, 2013, the Lexus Project, following months of commentary by dog lovers and supporters of Onion, filed a motion to extend the stay and provide exercise for Onion. The City noted that beginning in November, 2013, the dog was being walked for ten minutes twice a week. This led his supporters to clamor for additional compassion toward the dog, now in his 8th year.

==Henderson Gives Up and Onion is Released==
On Thursday, January 23, 2014, the city of Henderson gave up and released Onion to Richard Rosenthal of the Lexus Project.<ref>http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2545414/Dog-mauled-death-1-year-old-boy-life-spared-Nevada-judge-finds-new-home-nearly-two-years-fatal-attack.html</ref><ref>https://www.care2.com/causes/onion-the-vicious-dog-released-after-two-years-in-custody.html</ref> The dog had been incarcerated for almost two years and his freedom, starting with Golden's initiative, was finally achieved. The dog, bid a farewell by dog pound staff who obviously had gotten affectionate with the dog, licked Rosenthal and jumped into his van. They drove to an out-of-state sanctuary. Upon arriving, Onion and Rosenthal played non-stop for 45 minutes with Onion's favorite dog, a helicopter.
Henderson claimed they released the dog out of compassion for Onion's family, so that they wouldn't have to relive the circumstances of the death of Jeremiah. In fact, the judge who had sentenced Onion to death on the basis of evidence when in fact no evidentiary hearing had been held, and who was now being directed to hold such, had much prestige to lose from further proceedings. The City would be ripped apart by Rosenthal when their animal control officer would be revealed to have violated due process by, for example, forcing Onion's owner Keller to sign over ownership when she was trying to keep her grandson alive and didn't allow Keller from even reading let alone explaining the form. In addition, Las Vegas area supporters of Onion had shown they would be vocal about what they considered his lack of adequate exercise at the hands of the city and the city no doubt wanted to avoid further bad publicity.
