Cinnamon - Belgian Shepherd Malinois Dog for Adoption in Oakland, California

I am at Oakland Animal Services in kennel Dog H:2Cinnamon – Attentive, Gentle, and Affectionate

Cinnamon is a 3-year-old Belgian Shepherd Malinois mix weighing 48 pounds. She’s an attentive girl with generally calm energy, lovely manners, and a sweet, affectionate nature.

Calm and attentive: Cinnamon walks nicely on leash with only occasional pulling. She stays tuned in to her person and comes when called.
Smart and eager to learn: Cinnamon automatically sits patiently before her person with a soft gaze when treats are involved. She also knows “down” and happily follows cues to go up and down outdoor furniture.
Playful and gentle: Cinnamon enjoys a good game of fetch and always brings the ball back for the next round. She also plays gently with the other dogs in her doggie playgroup.
Sweet and affectionate: Cinnamon enjoys physical affection and often leans into her person for pets. Sometimes, she even rolls over to invite some belly rubs.

Cinnamon would do best with appropriately matched dogs, or as a solo dog with appropriate dog friends.
