Ursus

Border Collie American Pit Bull Terrier

Male, Adult
Oakland, CA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Spayed or Neutered,
Story
With a gaze that melts hearts and a spirit that fills every room, Ursus is far more than just a handsome face. He possesses a genuine, expansive heart and a personality so vibrant it's impossible to ignore. Though he carries himself with a certain natural beauty, he also has a sensitive side; he tends to be a bit cautious and endearingly eccentric when navigating new environments. This "delightfully weird" phase is simply his way of processing the world before he feels comfortable enough to let his true colors shine.Once that initial shell thaws, you are rewarded with a companion who is remarkably quirky and unapologetically goofy. He is the kind of dog who turns every mundane moment into a playful memory. While Ursus prefers the company of adults over the high energy of young children, his social life truly flourishes when other canines are involved. He is a social butterfly in the dog park, always eager to make new four-legged friends and engage in a good romp. For a patient owner who appreciates a touch of character and a lot of soul, Ursus is the perfect match. Primary Color: Grey Secondary Color: White Weight: 47.8 Age: 2yrs 5mths 0wks

Delilah is a spunky, high energy six month-old puppy. We rescued her from a shelter when she was 2 months old. We’ve provided her with an attentive and loving home and up-to-date vet care. She is healthy, super smart, house trained, crate trained, affectionate and will thrive with consistent activity, training and opportunities to use her working-dog skills.She appears to have strong border collie/shepherd traits possibly McNab (reactive to movement, high energy, focused, athletic, mouthy, ready to herd). She needs strong, consistent training and a “job” (farm life?) or lots of active adventures.

Oakland, CA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Draco is a young 38-pound sweetheart with a great mix of affection and playful energy. In the home, he’s calm, well-mannered, and easy to live with—he loves to be close to his people and is always up for a good cuddle. Outside, Draco enjoys his walks and a little playtime, including the occasional zoomies. He’s smart and responsive, walks nicely on leash, and continues to improve with guidance—especially when something exciting like a squirrel catches his eye. He’s social with other dogs, though a bit enthusiastic in his greetings, and would benefit from continued structure and consistency. Draco bonds quickly with his people and does best with calm, confident handling. He’s house-trained, does well when left alone, and is generally a quiet, easy companion. If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate, and easygoing companion who also brings a little playful spark to your life, Draco might just be your perfect match. Fill out a questionnaire and a volunteer will be in touch. (AO)

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 hereAt 5 years old and 51 pounds, this cattle dog/husky mix is a refreshing surprise. Instead of high-octane energy, Magdelena brings a peaceful presence wherever she goes. She walks beautifully on leash, no pulling, no fuss. She’s wonderfully polite in public, neutral around other dogs, and has charmed everyone from busy adoption event crowds to TV studio staff with her steady, composed demeanor. In her temporary foster home, she’s been easygoing and adaptable. She’s the kind of dog who’s just as happy strolling the neighborhood as she is lounging by your side. While she may be a little aloof at first, she has a soulful way of connecting with her people and will shadow you around the house. She’s incredibly gentle and loves scritches. She’s currently recovering from a treatable UTI, which may be affecting her potty routine, but she’s already showing good instincts like signaling when she needs to go out. Magdelena could thrive as a solo dog or with a respectful canine companion who appreciates her space. Whether you’re a peaceful homebody or someone who enjoys chill adventures, Magdelena is waiting to meet you.
