My husband and me recently adopted an Alaskan Husky ( Breezy) from Okland animal Shelter. She is really lovely and has brought happiness to our home. It seems that she has no experience and everything is new to her. I am happy that she entered my life and I can give her the peace and love she deserves. We go to the hike every weekend and I try to show her new things during the week. She gets excited and surprised to see the smallest things, even the waves of the ocean. I can write to you about my beautiful daughter for days. I would like to thank all the staff of the Oakland animal shelter, because of your efforts, you have brought joy to the lives of people like me, and you are saving the lives of animals who deserve a better life, like Breezy
This review is so long overdue. I have adopted and used the services of OAS since approximately 1999 and OAS has become my go to for all animal welfare issues (adoption, stray care, licensing, fostering, spay/neuter and animal resource information). Over the years we have been blessed to have adopted some of the most wonderful dogs from OAS who will always have a place in our hearts. Please explore the OAS website which is a great source of information and resources regarding animal care, adoption, fostering an animal and so much more! Any notion of OAS as "the pound" or where animals are just killed are outdated. Please take a little time to see how far animal welfare has come. The staff, volunteers and the public at large who adopt, foster and volunteer in these times of decreasing budgets and increasing need, are caring, compassionate and dedicated animal lovers. They are each of us, they are YOU. :)
More than grateful to have found this place and to be able to help by adopting kittens, and making donations to support them with the animals. Every weekend from 12:00pm adoptions begin, don't hesitate to help 🙏🏻✨
Anytime I've adopted a pet in Oakland (born and raised here and recently moved back) I've gotten them from OAS. The facility is pretty nice, the staff genuinely care, and they offer very affordable essential pet services for anyone. Highly recommend this place and hope they get as much traffic/funding/etc as they need and deserve.
I found a sweet dog on the street, since I couldn’t keep her I took her to Oakland Animal Services and they were very helpful with this sweet girl. They were able to take her in and made sure I filled out as much helpful information as I could. Hopefully they are able to find her a loving home. She has so much affection to give 🥰 ACR #70193
I’ve adopted and fostered with OAS since 2017. The most caring people around work and volunteer here! 10/10 recommend. If you’re wanting to volunteer with an animal shelter and live in the bay - definitely consider volunteering here!
