Story
Hi, I`m Kendra! I`m young, brimming with curiosity and always up for an adventure. I`ve got a spirit that`s brave and energetic, ready to explore the world one sniff at a time. Play is my middle name, whether it`s a game of fetch or a playful romp with my fellow shelter pals. My breed, the Dutch Shepherd, is known for being intelligent and active, and I`m no exception. I`m eager to learn and love a good challenge. But don`t let my energy fool you, I`m also a cuddle bug at heart. I love nothing more than curling up with a human friend after a day of play. Adopting me means welcoming a bundle of joy and endless love into your life. I promise to be your loyal companion, your playmate, and your best friend. All I ask for in return is a loving home where I can continue to grow, play, and love. Will you be my forever family? Contact the shelter at 510-293-7200.

Story
Max, neutered male, 1-year-old, 38-lbs If you would like to give Max a forever home, please contact abetterchancerescue@gmail.com OR log onto abetterchancerescue.org to fill out online application Meet Max! Max is a mellow and cheerful young pup with loving nature. He is close to humans, always greet people with a big smile and non-stop wagging tail and hip. He is super smart and aimed to please, so is easy to train. Around the house he obeys rules, has good judgement, and good self-discipline. He waits patiently before eating his food, before going thru doorways, and when getting in and out of the car. He checks-in often with his human, sitting very still and gazing up politely. He loves the head/tummy rubs and cuddling that follows. He loves to eat and gets excited before taking a walk, but will heed to command well. Max is crate trained to sleep overnight and potty trained to go outside. His favorite pastime is his daily walks, and romping around with doggie friends in the park. Please watch his videos below to learn more about this goofy boy! About Max’ rescue: Max was one of the lucky TNR (trap/neuter/release) shelter dogs that was bailed out by the rescuer before his scheduled release date.

Good with dogs, Needs special attention, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Obie (short for Old Boy) is a sweet old boy looking for a comfy couch to call his own. He has a beautiful fluffy coat that he enjoys a nice brushing of. Obie is a quiet and dignified couch potato. He is fine with everyone but particularly loves men. He loves ear scratches and a nice snooze. Obie is currently on medication for seizures. He takes this medication twice a day and it has greatly reduced his occurrence of seizures. He takes his medications easily if hidden in cream cheese, sour cream or yogurt. Obie is house trained with a doggie door right now. He enjoys spending his afternoons outside relaxing. He can be scared by loud things like fireworks but has done well with CBD as needed for this very specific anxiety. Obie does not really care for treats or toys. Treats he has enjoyed for training include lamb roast, mashed potatoes and eggs. He thinks vegetables are yucky. He seems to have been new to dog food but has taken to it well with some patience. Obie currently lives with another large dog and gets along well with her. She will even snap at him sometimes and he will not really react. He simply wants to be her friend. We also believe Obie will be fine with mannerly children. He has met toddlers and takes care to not knock them over. When meeting cats indoors, Obie was excited but did not necessarily exhibit high prey drive. He allowed his foster mom to call him back as she removed the cat. When he sees cats outdoors he like to try to chase them, though this is true of most dogs (even those that live with cats). All Better World Rescue dogs qualify for private and/or group training at no additional cost to help ensure a successful adoption. To meet Obie, fill out our short adoption application: www.betterworldrescue.org/adoption-application Once an application is filled out, our volunteers will reach out to you within one business day to answer any questions and schedule a meet and greet.

Story
08/19/24 14:59Dog behavior has improved. Inside of kennel when split from other dog inside of kennel, I am able to leash as she is now approaching the kennel door and bows her head to get leashed and is no longer biting at leash or displaying any aggressive behavior. She does not hesitate to come out of kennel and once she was outside I was able to do a full and invasive handling. She did well with me checking her teeth, pickiing up her front and back paw, checking and pulling her ears, petting her stomach and even allowed me to pick her up . She seeks attention when called with a low tail wag, a submissive head bow, a relaxed mouth and calm eyes. When walking around she ignored other dogs barking at her and just sniffed around with a calm body posture. LB07/09/24 15:58Since sharing a kennel with other dog has been getting better inside the kennel, comes when called and will lick hand. When I split them up and tried to leash her by herself her behavior went back to biting, striking, and jumping at leash. She eventually was leashed and froze again and did not want to getout of kennel. I then left the leash on and lifted the divider so the other dog can calm her down. I then split them up and tried to pull her out again and she went out without an issue, walked around and sniffed. I did basic petting and put dog back. Use caution when leashing. LB07/02/24 08:27ON June 27, Dog was at back of kennel, trying to bite leash when I tossed it in first time, shaking, lip licking, puckeing lips. Had to lasso to leash and once leashed she freezes and did not want to move out of kennel. Showed her another dog she came in with and was more motivated to go outside of her kennel. Outside of her kennel she is tail tucked but had no dilated eyes, relaxed mouth, rubbing on the dog she came in with. When getting overwhelmed she went under the legs of a volunteer who was sitting near by. Only able to do basic petting on back, not able to fully restrain. Moving her in with other dog. LB

Story
Kiki is one of the sweetest dogs I've ever known. I am incredibly sad to have to look for a new home for her, but unfortunately because of my situation I need to do what's best for her. She loves to be near people and will follow you around everywhere. She's small for a German shepherd (about 62 lbs), almost 3 years old, and still has some puppy energy/curiosity. Her favorite things are to go on hikes, play with other dogs, "hunt" for squirrels, go swimming in lakes/the beach, and play in snow. She has never bit anyone or another dog. She has been bitten, though, and because of that is anxious when other dogs come up on her side. She also does have some separation anxiety but once settled she is ok to leave alone for several hours - she'll just nap. The ideal home would be someone who has a family or another dog or is at least home with her often and has a yard or outdoor space. She will love you unconditionally.

Story
This is Leva. She used to be named Levi, and then it was discovered that she is a girl. This gives you an idea of how shy Leva was when she arrived at the shelter with her sister. Her sister was also dominating her, so she hadn’t yet figured out how to be herself. Leva is still very shy, but with the help of some staff and volunteers, she is coming around nicely. Leva plays beautifully with other dogs, and another secure dog in her new home may help her come out of her shell completely. Leva is very interactive once she is comfortable, and will also invite belly rubs and even lean in for hugs from humans. She’s a wonderful dog who is super-engaged and smart as a whip. She’d love to go home as soon as possible, so she can find her place in the world and mature into the best dog ever. We know she has that potential. Leva is currently in a foster home. If you're interested in her, please email KSwanson@cityofberkeley.info First, we'll set up a virtual meeting with their current foster family via phone, Zoom, or Facetime, to provide you with more detailed information. Then, if you feel that Leva might be a good adoption fit, shelter staff will gladly coordinate an up-close and personal meet and greet with your potential family member. Thank you for your support!
