Once the stray holding time is completed, the animal becomes the property of Oakland County Animal Control and is processed through a veterinarian & behavioral check for adoption. The animal will be updated on vaccines, spay/neutered and tested for heartworm (in dogs) and FIV/FeLuk (in cats) prior to being adopted. Once the animal is adopted, all adoptions are final. Finding a Lost or Missing Pet The Oakland Pet Adoption Center is committed to reuniting lost pets with their families and providing a temporary safe haven for animals until they can be placed into their forever homes. It is important to note that breeds can be interpreted differently and collars/tags can be lost, so it is very imperative to physically visit your animal control/shelter to personally identify your lost pet. When coming to identify your pet, please bring proper proof of ownership. If your pet is missing, it is your responsibility to search for them, so please be diligent. The Oakland Pet Adoption Center cares for approximately 6,000 animals per year and requires that you visit in person to look for your pet. Other tips for looking for a lost pet: 1. Call your local animal control or police to alert them of your missing pet. 2. Get moving! Search your neighborhood and talk with your neighbors. Post flyers to make as many aware as possible about your lost pet. 3. Visit your shelter daily! Animals come into the shelter at all hours, so visit your local shelter as often as possible/ Tips to keep your pet safe and at home: 1. Keep two forms of identification on your pet at all times. This can be a County license, identification tag, or microchip. 2. Spay or neuter your pet can be preventative in decreasing their likelihood to roam. According to Spay Inc. Organization, animals are less likely to run away or get involved in animal fights once they are spay/neutered, and also can become calmer. 3. Keep cats indoors and dogs on a leash when going outside for a walk. Things can happen in a split instant, but being prepared will help keep your pet at home and out of the shelter. .

  • Ears Up! Do We Really Need to Tape?
    Norwich Terriers, 5-15 Title: Ears Up! Do we really need to tape? Ear carriage was not of great importance to the early English breeders who bred for a good- tempered, hardy little terrier capable of dispatching small vermin. In those early years, both prick-eared and drop-eared were crossed, and most ears were cropped (that is, until cropping became illegal). Although the early breeders did not intend to establish two varieties of Norwich Terriers, when the breed was recognized by The Kennel Club in 1932, ears became all important with many of the first show breeders favoring the prick ear. Experience had also shown that crossing drop and prick ears often resulted in uncertain ear carriage in the offspring, and even when correctly carried, whether drop or prick, breeders could not be sure what the next generation would produce. Inevitably, by the early 1930s the breed was dividing on ears. This was not without dispute. In fact, the president of the first Norwich Terrier Club (England) resigned when, despite his opposition, the standard included drop ears. Quarreling over the matter continued for nearly two decades, with some futile attempts to prove which ear carriage was the original, and therefore correct. Even the ear carriage of the breed’s first champion was the subject of controversy. Earning his championship in 1935, three years after breed recognition, Ch. Biffin of Beaufin had ears which were “neither perfectly dropped nor perfectly erect”. Drop-ear breeders declared Biffin as their own, while his litter sister was of importance in the prick-ear Norwich ancestory.

  • THE IRISH TERRIER UNIQUE ORIGIN: the Exact Breeds That The
    THE IRISH TERRIER UNIQUE ORIGIN: The exact breeds that the Irish Terrier descended from are unknown but many believe their ancestors were the now-extinct black and tan Terrier and a larger wheaten-colored terrier. The breed hails from County Cork, Ireland and emerged as a recognized breed around 1875 at a dog show in Glasgow, Scotland. They were bred for their working and hunting abilities and were referred to as a poor man’s sentinel, a farmer’s friend, and a gentleman’s favorite. PERSONALITY: Two nicknames for the Irish Terrier are Daredevil and Red Devil, one for being so feisty and courageous that they will guard their home and family with their strong protective instinct, and the other name because of their red, wiry coat color that helps protect them from the weather. They were created to be a companion, hunter, and guard dog, and as such, they are watchful, protective, and territorial. Irish Terriers are also feisty, spirited, good-tempered, and adaptable. They love their families and aren’t considered a one-person dog, as they love people and are even friendly towards strangers. They are very affectionate and tender with children and have infinite patience with them; however, they can be dog aggressive, especially towards dogs of the same sex. This independent and smart dog makes a wonderful family pet. APPEARANCE: Irish Terriers usually weigh between 23 to 30 pounds and stand approximately 15 to 19 inches tall. They are a medium-sized dog with a muscular and agile build. Their coat is short and wiry and often sport bright red hair.
