My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

During the state mandated shelter-in-place order BACS has transitioned to virtual, socially-distanced adoptions.
If you have an interest in a particular BACS animal, please email KSwanson@cityofberkeley.info. The first step will be to set up a virtual meeting with their current foster family via phone, zoom, or facetime, to provide you with more detailed information about the animal. Following that, if you feel like it could be a good adoption fit, shelter staff will help coordinate a socially-distanced meeting in person so that you can meet your potential family member up-close and personal. Thank you for your patience during this time. We really appreciate your support!
Berkeley is a loving boy whose excitement is contagious. His friendly nature and eagerness to please, combined with his athleticism, will make him an amazing companion for someone with time to challenge him physically and mentally.

At a year old, Berkeley is a teenager who is just a big puppy. He appears to have missed out on some early training. But he is a quick student and already excels at walking on leash and crate training! Despite his youthful energy, he's an absolute joy to walk. He loves to greet other dogs, both big and small, but he has some maturing to do and doesn't understand why some dogs don't want to be his best friend.

He'd thrive in a home experienced in dog training. He'd also probably excel in dog sports (nose work, agility, weight pulling). Berkeley could live with a well-matched dog, who has the patience and energy for a younger brother.

Berkeley represents everything we love about pit bulls: agile, fun, loyal, low-shed, social, and sometimes too smart for his own good.
