My story

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

I am at Oakland Animal Services in kennel Dog Adoption:4

Lego is an exuberant and affectionate 2-year-old male Pit Bull mix weighing 60 pounds. This high-energy, fun-loving boy is as eager to connect with people as he is to explore the world around him.

Lego craves human companionship and thrives on human interaction. While he may be easily excitable, he quickly melts into calmness when given attention, leaning in for pets and affection. He's a social butterfly who enjoys making new friends and is eager to please, despite having minimal training so far.

In doggy playgroups, Lego demonstrates a forward social dynamic and medium-to-high energy. He plays well with male and female dogs, engaging in loose and relaxed play styles, including chasing and play bows. Lego is open to living with appropriately matched dog friends or being the star pup in a home where he can soak up all the love and attention.

Lego would do best in an active home where his energy can be channeled into positive activities and training. His boundless energy stems from a deep need for connection and an outlet for his enthusiasm. Adopters committed to providing consistent positive reinforcement training will help him develop better leash manners and basic obedience. Though currently a strong puller, Lego responds well to verbal reminders and settles in with fewer distractions. A home with children over 13 years old is recommended at this time.

Lego is a loving, people-focused pup who's ready to find a home that will give him the structure, affection, and fun he deserves.

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.
