My story

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

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 here


Meet Wiz - the 2-year old, Gentle Labrador Retriever, who is Shy yet Playful, and sometimes needs a bit of time to warm up to new people and environments. Once he does, he blossoms into a Fun-loving and Affectionate companion.

  • Gentle and Shy: Wiz may be cautious at first, often retreating around new things, but with patience, he warms up beautifully.
  • Fully House-Trained and Loves his Kennel: Wiz has excellent house manners, finds comfort in his kennel, where he sleeps at night and rests during the day where he feels secure.
  • Playful and Fun-Loving: Wiz loves playing fetch, enjoying toys, and splashing around in water, showing a joyful side that's hard to resist.
  • Quick Learner: He knows cues like sit, paw, and touch and is eager to learn more, making training a rewarding experience.
  • Good with Other Dogs: Wiz gets along well with the resident dog in his foster home, is respectful, and has a desire to play.

Wiz is ideal in a home with another dog or as the solo dog. If you're looking for a sweet, trainable companion who loves to play and snuggle, Wiz is the perfect match. Click here to learn how to adopt, and submit your adoption questionnaire.

Submit Application

If you are interested in adopting this pet, please submit an application: https://www.oaklandanimalservices.org/adopt/how-to-adopt/

Additional adoption info

Thank you for considering adopting a shelter pet! There are two ways to adopt:
1. Visit our shelter (1101 29th Ave) Saturday or Sunday from 12-3pm, when we are open for adoptions.
2. Use our online process as described at www.oaklandanimalservices.org Adoptions are first-come-first-served. While we try our best to get back to everyone via our online process, sometimes it takes several days or a week or two, and the pet you are interested in may get adopted during our open adoption hours.

Please note that inquires submitted through this website about this pet may not receive an immediate response due to the large volume of inquires we receive. If you are interested in adopting this pet, please submit an adoption application to be considered.

Adoption requirements:
- You must be 18 years of age or older with a valid California driver’s license or other acceptable identification
- Never have had any cruelty convictions, animal control violations or broken any adoption contracts in the past
- Agree to and sign the “Statement of Adopter” on the adoption questionnaire which includes a waiver of liability
- Pay the adoption fees and applicable licensing fees. Fees include spay/neuter, vaccinations, and microchip
- All animals, including rabbits, must be spayed or neutered. If the pet you are interested in adopting is not yet spayed/neutered, a staff member will discuss next steps with you

Additional information for dog adopters:
- Other canines in the home must meet the new dog prior to adoption.
- Provide proof of home ownership or permission to have a dog from your landlord. We cannot hold the dog that you want to adopt while you try to meet this requirement.
- Agree to a home inspection if the dog is a large breed dog or dog that has been identified to need additional attention.
- Be aware of the Oakland and State Laws about dog ownership.

We do not place adoption holds on any animals.

More about this shelter

As the city of Oakland’s sole open-admissions animal shelter, Oakland Animal Services’ duties are as diverse as the community we serve. Operating on the leanest of budgets, Oakland Animal Services (OAS) operates the city’s animal control unit, enforcing animal welfare and public safety laws, provides care for stray and surrendered animals, supports lost pet searches and reunions, and facilitates the placement of homeless animals via public adoptions and coordination with transfer partners near and far. The needs of the community are great, but so are the results of a job well done: the enhancement of quality of life for humans and animals alike.
