Story
Cliff is a gorgeous Malinois who is sweet, friendly with everyone, and loves being with his people. Like most Malinois, Cliff is a high energy dog who likes having a job and routine. He needs a minimum of 1-2 hours of exercise per day, and plenty of mental stimulation as well. Cliff is very toy motivated and loves to play fetch and tug. He is always outgoing with people and does great with other dogs. He is 100% house trained and does awesome on leash, too. If you think Cliff could the dog for you, please fill out an adoption application!

Story
I am at Oakland Animal Services in kennel Dog Adoption:9Holden – Affectionate, Smart, and Eager to Connect Holden is a 4-year-old Belgian Shepherd Malinois mix weighing about 70 pounds. This handsome boy combines an intelligent, responsive nature with a very affectionate side that shines when he is with his people. People-oriented sweetheart: Holden enjoys close contact and will happily lean into you or rest his head on your lap to encourage more pets. If you stop, he may gently nudge your hand. Loves affection: He’s a big fan of belly rubs and will flip onto his back, staying perfectly still while enjoying the attention. Smart and responsive: Holden knows “sit,” “paw” (both left and right), and sometimes “down,” showing that he enjoys engaging with his handler. Working on leash manners: He pulls quite a bit on leash and would benefit from continued guidance. Holden would do well with appropriately matched dog companions or as a solo dog with dog friends.March 7, 2026, 9:29 am

Belgian Malinois Mixed Breed (Medium)

Male, 1 yr 4 mos
Oakland, CA
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Rufus is a young, energetic 60-pound boy who loves to play and stay active. He enjoys rough-and-tumble play with his dog buddies and gets along well with dogs of all sizes. He plays appropriately, avoids real conflicts, and would likely be a great candidate for dog parks or multi-dog homes. At night, he’s calm and quiet, sleeping peacefully through the evening. Rufus appears to be well house-trained, as he has not had any indoor accidents in foster care. He’s a smart, eager learner who already knows his “sit” command and will thrive with continued training. Like many young dogs, he’ll need some work on recall before enjoying off-leash freedom. Cat note: Rufus becomes very excited when teased by outdoor feral cats, so any home with resident cats would require careful introductions, management, and training. Rufus is an active, fun-loving companion who will do best with an adopter ready to match his energy and continue helping him learn and grow. (CF)

Not good with kids, Good with dogs, Declawed, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
I am at Oakland Animal Services in kennel Dog H:2This dog is available to meet by appointment only. This young, 54-pound Malinois mix is a sensitive, thoughtful girl who’s still learning that the world can be a kind place. Nyx can be shy with new people and startles at unfamiliar sounds, but give her a moment (and a few treats!) and she’ll bravely step forward, offer a sit, and lean in for gentle chin scratches that turn into real trust. Nyx enjoys dog playgroups and loves a good chase-style game. She’d do well with appropriately paired canine friends, or she’d be happy as your one-and-only with dog buddies on the side. True to her breed, she’s smart, active, and eager to learn, and she’s looking for an experienced, patient adopter who can offer structure, enrichment, and plenty of physical and mental outlets. Nyx has all the potential to truly shine in a stable home of her own. If you’re ready to help a bright, sensitive dog blossom, Nyx might be your match. Please submit an adoption questionnaire to meet her.   March 7, 2026, 9:29 am

Story
I am in a foster home and not at the shelter. If you are interested in adopting, submit an adoption questionnaire by email. Learn more hereKris is an 8-year-old, 70-pound sweetheart who may be a senior on paper, but he’s got the athleticism and enthusiasm of a younger dog. He’s playful and can catch a ball midair like an absolute champ. If fetch is your love language, Kris is already fluent! His foster family reports Kris is the definition of easy. He’s fully potty trained, relaxed, and happy to entertain himself with toys or settle in beside you once he’s had his fun. He has wonderful house manners and has an all-around good-natured temperament. He knows cues like sit, enjoys learning, and loves pleasing his people. He’s excellent on leash, making walks smooth and enjoyable. He’s curious and loves exploring, but always with a calm, steady energy. Kris was a family dog before arriving at the shelter, and you can feel how ready he is to be part of a home again. He’d be happy as your one-and-only companion or potentially a good match for another mellow dog. This smiley gentleman can’t wait to meet the new family he’ll love forever.

Buttercup is very intelligent, friendly, curious and sociable. A little feisty. Likes children. She loves to be cuddled. Buttercup will be a great companion as an adult dog if her adopter puts the time and commitment into her puppy education. As an adult she will need a lifetime of responsibility, with daily exercise and routine medical care. And of course lots of love!
