Landon - German Shepherd Dog Dog for Adoption in Oakland, California

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 hereMeet Landon, a goofy, lovable shepherd mix with big zoomies! 1 year old and 55 pounds, this handsome pup is full of energy, curiosity, and joy. Found as a stray at a construction site, Landon is now ready to build a future with a forever family of his own.

His fosters say he is incredibly smart, treat-motivated, and already knows “sit”, “paw” and “down.” He's crate trained and potty trained, and has settled in beautifully. This silly guy gets along with the playful resident dog, and would thrive in an active home with room to run, play, and continue learning. After a fun day of adventures, Landon’s favorite thing is snuggling up for pets —he’ll happily drift right off to sleep beside you.

At the shelter, Landon did wonderfully in doggy playgroups. He absolutely loves other dogs and likes to show off his fun side with chase games and play bows galore.

If you’re looking for a loyal shadow, a playful companion, and a total sweetheart wrapped into one energetic pup, Landon might just be your match! Follow him in foster with @augieandfriends_ on Instagram, and click here to learn how to adopt and submit your adoption questionnaire.
