Hi! My name is Steve and I am a very sweet boy! I came into the shelter as a stray a long time ago and no one ever claimed me. I am friendly and playful. I love to fetch the ball and I love to play with other dogs. I am a smart boy who knows "sit." I am full of life and just want a home where I'll be part of the family. I love spending time with people. I am a loyal, devoted boy who is housetrained. I enjoy taking walks and playing in the yard. I walk very well on leash, which makes it a lot more fun for both of us. Please give me a chance! Adoption fee: $75. Adopt a pair: $115. Fee includes testing, deworming, vaccinations, spay/neuter, 60 days of free pet insurance and microchip.
I live at the Oakland County Animal Control and Pet Adoption Center at 1700 Brown Rd in Auburn Hills. You can visit me there any time the shelter is open. The shelter will not put me up for adoption because of my appearance, so my only way out of the shelter alive is through a rescue.

NOTE ABOUT BREED LABELING: Visual breed identification of dogs is unreliable and usually inaccurate. So, for most of our adoptable dogs, we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each dog
as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not by breed label.
Why is labeling a dog such a big deal? A label will stick with a dog for the rest of its life. A label can mean discrimination, losing its home or even death. Labels are a problem for the dogs when we, as the local experts on animals, allow adopters, politicians and community members to think that the label we assign can predict who that dog is or will be.
