Marley and Bob

Age: 1 ½ years
S*x: Male, neutered
Breed: Domestic Shorthair, White and Orange

This is a courtesy listing to help these sweet boys find their forever home. Please contact Joan at 510-457-6360

Bob and Marley are bonded, loving, and playful 1 1/2 year old brothers. Marley with more white color is more outgoing and an enthusiastic chatty greeter and Bob takes his cues from him but is the first to play executing huge back flips and jumps with wand toys. Marley prefers faux hunting mouse like ground toys softly growling them into submission. They enjoy petting, being picked up and carried around and are learning the joy of laps. They are indoor cats. Are you ready to fall in love?

Marley and Bob are vaccinated and microchipped.

❤️This silly, sensitive goober recently lost his long-time home. 💔 The shelter gave him a glowing review: "This is Escrow, a guy whose world was just turned upside down after losing his long-time home. He’s a very sensitive boy who is looking for a couch or a bed to curl up on and someone to dote on him the way he deserves. Escrow is a perfect size (around 30 pounds) and very easy to handle walking on leash, though he doesn’t need too much of that. He’d rather just hang out with you—he’s a perfect companion. Escrow is a tiny bit reserved with new people, but warms up quickly. He also appears comfortable with other dogs and seems extremely housetrained."

This Georgia Peach 🍑 is adoptable at Berkeley Animal Care Services 🧡 Here's what they had to say about Georgia: "It takes a little while to get to know Georgia – she is reserved and has lived a good part of life that we know nothing about. But if you take the time, she’s totally worth it! She is very sweet with people, but not so fond of other dogs. She’d like to be your only dog in the home. Like any respectable shepherd, Georgia is vigilant about her surroundings, and will alert you to any perceived threats. She’s also very smart and responsive to her handler. She would really like room to run, too; she’s not too crazy about confinement in a kennel. A home with previous shepherd experience would be fantastic for her." https://www.petfinder.com/dog/georgia-70386619/ca/berkeley/berkeley-animal-care-services-ca412/

It's criminal this sweet, squishy boy has been adoptable since November! 😟 He's currently waiting at Animal Care & Control San Francisco. 💚https://24Petconnect.com/DetailsMain/SNFR/A500919 Read about him: "He's a solid hunk of sweetness that would love nothing more than to cuddle up on the couch next to you, gaze into your eyes and tell you how much he loves you. He would like to follow that up with a solid plush squeaky toy play session, with kisses and lovey-dovey gazes thrown in, of course. Despite his size, Tuna is a tender guy, and needs someone who will be sensitive while encouraging his confidence and positive association with anything he might feel worried about. He'd do best with humans who have had big dogs before and is rated for kids 10+."

Our shelters are overcrowded. The dogs in our community need our help. An easy and free way to help is by spreading the word about these dogs. You can post them on Nextdoor to reach more people, or share this here on Facebook. A single share could save a life. ❤️

😱😢We wish we had better news, but the intake of dogs just keeps coming ... and coming ... and coming. Today, February 18, we have 104 large dogs living in space designed to hold 73. This creates a stressful and unsustainable situation for humans and dogs and we desperately need to find new homes for as many big dogs (25+ lbs) as possible today.

That's where you can help - we will be ready for you at Oakland Animal Services today until 3 p.m., with no appointment required. Please stop by and take a dog home with you!

Adoptable dogs: https://www.oaklandanimalservices.org/adopt/dogs/

We are at 1101 29th Avenue in Oakland. 1/2 mile from the Fruitvale BART station, near AC Transit 20/21/62 at East 12th St and 29th Avenue. We have a parking lot and when it is full there is neighborhood parking or parking at the shopping center across the street.

❤️This expressive gal is Maia and she's looking for a home at Berkeley Animal Care Services! ❤️ Read all about her:
"Maia is a lovely husky who is initially very shy of strangers. It appears as though she hasn’t had the easiest life. She came in very skinny, after being caught running on a very busy street. Once Maia warms up to you, she is very appreciative of petting and brushing. She also walks nicely on leash and has no issues with other dogs. If you are looking for a loving husky who is very well behaved and gentle, she may be your perfect fit. Maia appears to be housetrained."

This big guy is Dorian! 💙 He's looking for a home at Oakland Animal Services and they had this to say about him:
"Dorian is looking for a very special home. He loves his people once he's given the chance to know them but he's a sensitive big guy who takes time to warm up to new people. With dogs on the other hand, Dorian is a social butterfly and is going out to playgroup almost daily at the shelter. This young handsome boy enjoys training and would love a home with large dog experience that is excited to help him reach his greatest potential using positive reinforcement training methods."

🧡Muppet 😍 is adoptable at Berkeley Animal Care Services! Here’s what they said about her:
“This Muppet is not as keen on stage time - she's very submissive for a big girl! She is shy at first, but really loves humans and attention. She will give you her belly to rub in no time! She also came in with another dog, and she will likely do well in a household where there is another secure dog to show her the ropes.

On her own, she is nervous about new places and experiences. If you are looking for a dog where the benefits of a loving and stable home will be obvious – you will see it in her behavioral growth -- Muppet may be your girl.

💘Find your Valentine💘 This STAR is adoptable at Berkeley Animal Care Services. Here's what they have to say about her:
https://www.petfinder.com/dog/star-70479671/ca/berkeley/berkeley-animal-care-services-ca412/
"Looking for a quiet and gentle companion? Meet Star. She is a very unassuming dog, who at first doesn’t seem interested in people. She will be laying on her bed, and slowly she’ll decide to lift up one leg and show you her belly for some belly rubs. After Star is sure you’re kind, she’ll get up and consent to going for a walk. On walks she is not at all concerned about other dogs, preferring to sniff around and walk along, just doing her own thing. Once in a while, she’ll stop and look back at you, as if to say: it would be fine if you pet me now! And so you should."

Sticking with the food theme this week...meet CUPCAKE! 🧁
This sensitive lil morsel is adoptable at Berkeley Animal Care Services. 💝Here's what they had to say about her:
"Cupcake will steal your heart when you are not looking. She is extremely shy at first, and takes time to trust new people. But if you take the extra time to get to know her, she will reward you ten times over. She’s still getting used to a new environment in the shelter – we don’t think she had much exposure to much of anything in the past. So the sights and sounds (in particular) are still a little intimidating. But once Cupcake gets a little comfortable, we can start to see glimpses of who she really is. She comes out of her shell a lot when playing with other dogs. And she hugs tight to people she trusts."

This sweet young thing is Brie! 🤍 She's adoptable in Dublin at the East Bay SPCA. https://eastbayspca.org/adopt/adopt-a-dog
Here's what they had to say about her:
"True to her name, Brie will melt into your lap and melt your heart. She's a little cautious of new folks, but once she knows you, she loves you. When she's not sitting in your lap or at your feet, she is quite playful. She loves toys, and collects them in her favorite spots. A puppy at heart! She is very connected to humans and wants to be a part of all the fun! She would be overjoyed to find her forever home with you!"

This absolute gem of a dog is a cheesecake! She’s looking for a home at Oakland Animal Services 🧡 Scoop her up before someone else does! 💘

Cheesecake: Where have you been human, you were gone so long and I missed you so much.

Human: Cheezie, I only walked out to get the mail.

Cheesecake: Yes, but I didn't know that and I thought you'd left me alone.

Human: I told you I'd be right back.

Cheesecake: Yes, but it felt like a really really long time. Can I get some treats now?

Cheesecake is nothing if not a people dog. This sweet gal gets so excited when humans approach her that she does a full on body wagging tippy tap dance. She's working hard on her manners, sitting and waiting (im)patiently until her human friend says okay, but it's just that she loves humans so so much!

Other dogs ... not so much. Cheesecake got a bit nervous meeting other dogs at OAS so we think she might do best as your one and only. Cheesecake is living in a foster home right now, but she often comes to adoption events, so you can meet her by appointment or by checking out her profile to see when she'll be at the shelter.

Welcome!

Over the past several years, significant strides have been made in reducing the rate of dog and cat euthanasia all across the nation. Home At Last Rescue (HAL) plays an active role in this "no-kill" movement by rescuing animals from city shelters, providing temporary foster care, and bringing these animals to the public for placement in high-quality, loving homes. Historically, HAL has operated primarily in the Berkeley area and has been instrumental in lowering the euthanasia rate in the Berkeley municipal shelter.

HAL is now working to replicate this success by expanding efforts to other East Bay communities. We have recently begun rescuing animals in Pinole and Martinez, and we have stepped up our efforts in Oakland and Alameda as well. We are extremely excited about the opportunity to make a bigger difference and would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to all of you who support us through your volunteer efforts, participation in our foster care program, and generous contributions. We truly could not do this without you.

Millions of cats and dogs are killed at municipal shelters each year. We rescue as many as we can from these shelters and then provide the animals with housing, socialization, rehabilitation and medical care. Once the animals are adoptable, we hold adoption events to find our animals loving, permanent homes.
