Meet Wombat
Wombat is a handsome Malinois mix, 4 years old and 69 pounds. He’s just as sensitive as he is sweet. Shelter life has been a bit overwhelming for him but he has made lots of progress with the help of his doggy friends who help him feel more confident. He is currently looking for a quiet yet active adult home with experienced adopters who can understand his timid demeanor and provide him with time and consistency to help him acclimate to home life. He'd love to go home with a friendly dog companion. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Oakland Animal Services (OAS) (@oaklandanimalservices)
