Newman's Story

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 hereNewman is a 10-month old, 42-pound pittie mix with striking coat markings and an endearing little snort that adds to his charm. This pup is still building confidence but has already shown himself to be gentle, curious, and eager to learn.<br/><br/>Thoughtful young explorer: Newman pulls mildly on leash though he may pull moderately at times to check out some spots. He enjoys sniffing adventures and likes investigating new smells at his own pace.<br/>Eager to learn: Highly treat motivated, Newman takes treats gently. While he’s still learning “sit,” he has already excelled at “touch” and happily follows treat lures during training sessions.<br/>Quietly affectionate: Newman prefers to stay close to his person and is gradually becoming more comfortable with petting as trust grows.<br/>Solo star: Newman has been uncomfortable meeting other dogs at the shelter. He may do best as the only dog in a home with patient adopters who can help him continue learning and gaining confidence.<br/><br/>Follow him in foster with @therealfosterdoggys on Instagram, and click here to learn how to adopt and submit your adoption questionnaire.<br/><br/>View this post on Instagram<br/><br/>A post shared by Oakland Animal Services (OAS) (@oaklandanimalservices)
