Story
Zoey is an enthusiastically friendly four year old medium sized dog who is likely some kind of terrier mix. She's not shy at all with new people and is very energetic- she doesn't necessarily need someone very experienced with dogs but does need someone who can regularly exercise her more strenuously than simple walks. She seems to understand the concept of fetch and loves playing with toys. She gets along with the two dogs she currently lives with but it is unknown how well she would interact with cats. She's very cuddly and loves attention! Her human passed away and had no known relatives so she needs a new forever home. She's very attentive to the humans around her and seems to be constantly looking for a job to do so she would probably do well with agility training or as a running buddy or farm/ranch companion. We are helping Zoey's current guardian to rehome her. Please fill out our online application and we will forward to them. Adoption fee would be minimum $100 donation to Furry Friends Rescue. If you have specific questions please send them through and we will put you in touch with her current guardian.August 20, 2026, 12:47 am

Story
Colt is Border Collie / Australian Shepherd Mix. He is 9 years old and weighs approx. 60lb Colt has Dry Eye disease (KCS). He requires specialized eye drops/medications (Cyclosporin / Tacrolimus / Poly-Bac Ointment) multiple times a day. He is very cooperative when receiving his medication, especially when treats are involved. He is currently not neutered. I am fully cooperative with your rescue handling his neuter surgery upon intake or using your partner veterinary clinics to alter him.: He must be placed in a strict only-pet home. He does not like other animals and will react if they are near. However, around humans, he is intensely loyal, deeply affectionate, and happiest when curled up right next to you. He is a sweet, devoted companion who also has a fun, playful, humorous side and absolutely loves playing with his toys. I love Colt deeply and would love to see him go to a loving family.

* Hi, I'm Arlo! I'm a young Shepherd mix with a whole lot of charm, energy, and enthusiasm for life.* I've still got plenty of puppy spirit, and I'm always ready for an adventure, a game, or a chance to learn something new.* Shelter life has been a little stressful for me, so I'd love a home that can give me some time to decompress while helping me channel my energy with fun enrichment and activities.* I know tricks like sit, stay (sometimes), paw, and lay. I am also potty trained.* If you're looking for a playful, active best friend who's ready to grow alongside you, I can't wait to meet you!

Story
Milo is a beautiful 42 lb border collie mix. Typical for a herding type dog, Milo has a lot of energy and is very intelligent. His foster family describes him as very sweet, goofy, active, and energetic. Milo loves to play games of all kinds, and especially loves playing fetch. Milo is crate trained, house trained, and walks well on leash. He is friendly with other dogs. He has not been cat tested. With his foster family, Milo does well with 2-4 hours of exercise daily. Typical for his breed type, Milo has shown some herding behaviors and can sometimes be protective of his space, his people, and his things. For these reasons, Milo would do best in a home without small children. Milo needs a family that can provide him with plenty of daily mental and physical stimulation. Herding breed experience or experience with other high drive dogs is strongly encouraged.

Story
I am at Oakland Animal Services in kennel Dog H:4Cassio – Wiggly, Affectionate, and Full of Charm Cassio is a 2-year-old Border Collie mix weighing 41 pounds with a delightful waggy personality and a big love for human attention. Enthusiastic buddy: Cassio may pull excitedly at the start of walks, but is easy to handle due his manageable size. He loves interacting with his human while showing off his ‘sit’, ‘down’ and ‘spin’.  Extra affectionate: It doesn’t take long for Cassio to hop up with his front paws on your legs, gazing up for attention and possibly sneaking in a quick face lick. He also loves leaning against people or stretching out across a lap for butt scratches. Playful and easygoing: Cassio can happily entertain himself with a plush toy and enjoys gentle play with other dogs in doggie playgroup. Social sweetheart: His waggy, people-loving personality shines through in nearly every interaction, making him a fun and affectionate companion. Cassio would do best with appropriately matched dogs or as a solo dog with dog friends outside the home.           View this post on Instagram                       A post shared by Oakland Animal Services (OAS) (@oaklandanimalservices) August 22, 2026, 3:39 am

Story
🧡 ADOPT ASTER 🧡 Aster is about 1.5 years old, 50lbs, and fully in his “I just want to love my people and go everywhere with them” era 🐾 This boy is the definition of an easy, happy companion. He’s been getting out for regular walks (and doing amazing no leash drama 👏), hopping in the car for errands, and honestly just living his best life being included. Car ride? He’s already in the back seat waiting. Errands? He’s your co-pilot. Couch time? He’s glued to you. Aster is VERY affectionate like the kind of dog that just wants to be near you all the time. He loves people, loves snuggles, and will happily soak up attention all day if you let him. He’s: ✔️ Crate trained ✔️ Knows basic commands ✔️ Good on leash ✔️ Dog-friendly (plays great with other dogs!) He had a playdate with two labs and fit right in playful, social, and just a good, easy dog to have around. Also… random but important: he LOVES being groomed. Ear cleaning day = best day of his life 😂 He’s gotten a lot more confident recently and does just fine when left separated he’s learned his people always come back. 🚫 No cats or small animals (he has prey drive) That’s it. Otherwise he’s just a really solid, loving dog who’s going to make someone very, very happy. If you want a dog who will ride with you everywhere, hang out with you, and actually enjoy life with you… Aster’s your guy. 📍 Apply through California Bully Rescue 🔗 www.cabullyrescue.org/adopt

Story
Riker is a 12 pound neutered male who is about eight months old. He will need regular brushing to keep his medium coat looking great. I did give his fluffy feet a little trim, but he will not require hair cuts. He is very friendly and affectionate but needs a minute to warm up with new people. In his previous home he spent all his time in a crate. He's thriving in his foster home and building confidence every day. He loves toys and other dogs. He spent his first night in a home with a cat and did fine, but we don't have a cat in his foster home. Small kids still make him nervous, so kids in a new home need to be 12 or older. He walks well on a leash and will be a good walking companion. If you think you are up for the commitment of training this adorable dog please submit an application for adoption. He is ready to to go to a new home now. Please note, if you don't receive a return call within a few days, assume Joey has found his forever home.
