Theia - Pit Bull Terrier 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 hereTheia is a sweet, gentle Pit Bull Terrier mix, weighing 75 pounds. This 8-year-old gal loves to explore her neighborhood on a relaxing stroll before snoozing the day away on your couch or a comfy dog bed.

Theia can be a little shy at first, but warms up quickly (treats and pets help!). She hasn’t shown much interest in other dogs (she may be able to live with another chill dog), but is very interested in cats and squirrels on neighborhood walks!

Adopting Theia comes with all the perks of an adult dog - she’s house-trained, well-behaved, and will patiently wait for you at home while you’re out & about. She knows ‘sit,’ ‘shake,’ ‘wait,’ and has quickly picked up ‘look!’ so you can always get her attention. She sleeps happily through the night in her pen and patiently waits until it’s time to wake up.
