Just looked and the dog a bit closer and notice it was shot in the head. This is traumatic...please help us as children are walking by.

I reported it to Oakland Animal Services but I'm not certain the adress listed here is correct. Can you please verify the address? When I look on Google street views, I don't see anything with a red sidewalk and a red door. If you have a different address and want this picked up ASAP, please call OPD non-emergency number at (510) 777-3333. They take Animal Services calls after hours. Due to short staffing, Animal Services only takes calls until 11am and may not be checking their answereing machine.

I just looked on Google maps and the dog appears to be in the driveway of the yard of the house on the corner of 79th Ave at Rudsdale St. It is behind a chain link fence. If it's not on public property, the owner of the property must request dead animal removal from Oakland Animal Services for a fee. I would think they'd want to report that someone shot their dog to OPD. Please note that seeclickfix does NOT forward reports to OPD. You need to call them yourself.

City of Oakland Public Works Department referred this issue to OPD ANIMAL SERVICES, service request # 538564.Please contact that department to follow-up, see “Other Helpful Links” at:
