📍 Bark & Meow Around the Block – 2700 19th Street, Berkeley

We’ll have a big selection of adoptable kittens and puppies ready to meet you! 💕

And guess what? Radar will be there too, still searching for his forever home.
This brave boy was once strangled and left mostly blind… but you’d never know it from the way he embraces the world—with love, curiosity, and trust.

Though his vision is limited, his spirit shines brighter than ever. ✨

✅ Great with other dogs (would love a furry buddy to help guide him)
✅ Okay with cats (he might try to play)
✅ Good with kids (loud noises can startle him)
✅ Walks well on leash (some pulling)
✅ About 90% potty trained
✅ Knows sit, stay, and wait

Radar has already come so far—now he just needs a patient, loving home to continue his journey. 🐶❤️

👉 Interested in adopting Radar?

🐾 COURTESY POST – Meet Vonnegut! 🐾

Vonnegut is a 4-year-old, 17-lb small terrier mix who lives for sunshine and snuggles. Calm, gentle, and quiet, he’s crate-trained, cat-friendly, and enjoys the company of calm, similarly sized dogs.

He’s happiest in a secure yard or curled up near his people, snoozing peacefully. Vonnegut has some separation anxiety, so he’d do best in a home where someone is around most of the time. He was born with a congenital deformity in one back leg, but he’s pain-free, healthy, and gets around just fine.

Let’s find this sweet boy the loving, patient home he deserves.

🐾 Meet Adam Maitland Beetlejuice – Our Resilient Little Survivor! 🐾

Adam is a 4-year-old, 15 lb terrier mix with a heart of gold. After being hit by a car and breaking his back, he’s bounced back stronger than ever! While his injury left him fecal incontinent (he wears a diaper indoors), it hasn’t slowed him down one bit — he happily follows his people everywhere, zooming up and down stairs with a smile.

Shy at first, Adam quickly becomes affectionate, gently nudging his head for pets. He’s healthy, active, neutered, vaccinated, and ready to find a forever home that will love him just the way he is.

📍 Meet him at our HUGE Adoption Event – Aug 23!

Save Shelter Animals

Hundreds of homeless dogs and cats get a second chance to meet their new families at this event. But for many, their journey to get here isn’t short or easy. Many need surgeries, medication, special food, time to heal, and gentle, loving care before they’re ready for adoption. You can make a life-saving donation to help animals like them get the chance of a lifetime.

Dog Training for Adopters

With 40+ years of experience helping Bay Area dogs and their families strengthen their bond, we have the training class for everyone! Adopters receive a discount code in their adoption package, so that bonding with your new pet is both fun, and affordable.
