Story
Gizmo is a 5-year-old Boxer who is deeply loving, affectionate, and people-oriented. He thrives on companionship and is happiest when close to his humans. Gizmo is gentle, enjoys snuggling, and has a playful, fun-loving personality that truly reflects the Boxer breed. He does experience significant separation anxiety and does best in a home where someone is present most of the time or where his need for companionship can be thoughtfully managed. Gizmo is playful and energetic, but also values calm time and connection with his people. This decision has been made with great care and heartbreak, and our priority is Gizmo’s long-term wellbeing and safety. Serious inquiries only.

Story
Meet Maple - Our Lovely Golden Girl with a Spark!Maple is a gentle, loving older lady with a heart full of sweetness and a nose that can find a treat from a mile away! Snacks are absolutely the way to her heart - but she also has a delightful amount of pep and enthusiasm for life. This beautiful senior girl may have a calm, kind spirit, but don't let her gray hairs fool you - she has plenty of energy and enjoys lively walks, exploring the world with a happy tail, and engaging with her people. After her adventures, she's equally content to settle in for cozy naps and soak up affection. Maple came to us with a mammary tumor that was removed during her stay in our care. While testing showed that it had likely already metastasized, she currently shows no signs of illness. Her expected survival could be two years or more - but even if her time may be somewhat shorter, that only makes it more important that she find her forever home soon, with someone who will cherish her golden days. Maple is a "Pawspice" adoption, meaning the East Bay SPCA will provide specific ongoing support for her care going forward. Come meet this lovely, spirited girl to learn more and see if she's the one who'll brighten your home. Primary Color: Brown Secondary Color: White Weight: 69.2 Age: 8yrs 2mths 4wks

Story
WOOF! I'M RILEY! I'm a 3-year-old cute Boxer-Shepherd mix in need of a foster or forever home. I have dark eyes and it looks like I wear shades! I was recently rescued from a California shelter where I was pretty terrified - I sat in the back and looked at people as they walked by. But now I'm coming out of my shell. I have done great with other dogs so far and am quickly adjusting to be a happy boy. I weigh about 50-55 lbs. Can you foster or adopt me? Please email for an application.

Story
I am at Oakland Animal Services in kennel Dog Adoption:12Molly is a sweet, silver-muzzled lady with a gentle soul and a playful spark. She’s 9 years young and 63 pounds, a boxer/pittie mix who’s calm and thoughtful. She can be cautious at first, but once she warms up, she shines. Volunteers note she enjoys doing her own thing, trots nicely on leash, and takes treats very politely.  She already knows sit and paw, and loves squeaky toys. She’ll even play a mellow game of fetch with an impressive catch-and-drop.  On a recent field trip to Jack London Square, Molly showed just how easygoing she can be, walking very nicely at a relaxed pace. She had no reaction to passing people, dogs, or small animals, and took everything in stride. She was a bit restless in the car, but settled in and slept on the ride back. Around other dogs, Molly stays relaxed and prefers polite, low-key interactions. She’d do great as a solo dog or with a well-matched canine friend who respects her space. If you’re looking for a calm, sweet companion who appreciates kindness and a cozy routine, Molly might just be your match.   February 4, 2026, 9:31 pm

Story
Fum aka Harley, is a playful and affectionate puppy that is looking for his forever home. He loves exploring and sniffing when out on his walks. He does well on the leash and will occasionally pull for a good sniff but quickly adjust with a little correction. He loves his toys but tends to tear up stuffies, he does best with heavy duty chews and tug toys. Fum is a smart boy already knowing commands like down and sit and is working on more. He is highly treat motivated and cataches on quickly, plus he is crate and potty trained like a champ. Fum is still very much a puppy and working out his puppy energy and needs training and exercise.  Fum does well with other dogs, cats, and children, just exercise caution around young ones since he gets the zoomies. He is neutered, up to date on vaccines, and chipped. All Better World Rescue dogs come with complimentary group or private training to help ensure a successful adoption. If you're interested in meeting Fum fill out an application and a volunteer will reach out within one business day.  www.betterworldrescue.org/adoption-application

Hello, we are currently seeking a new home for our American Bully, Mia. She is 2 years old. Following my daughter's recent move back home, our living space has become insufficient for Mia. We often take her to dog parks, where she exhibits playful behavior around other dogs and has a strong affinity for cuddling. Mia would best fit an active owner.

Story
Hi this is Nova. She is currently 10 months old and turns 1 on March 13th. The living community I am in does not allow pitbulls and has given me a notice to remove her form the home. She loves walks, playing tug of war and catch. She is very food motivated and knows some commands like sit, wait, stay, jump, pull, and eat. I just care that she goes to a loving home where she can run around and play and receive the attention she needs. She does hate showers but loves being scratched and having her fur brushed out. Nova can be a very cautious dogs but is also protective.
