I know you want me in your life; why would you not? I am oh-so sweet and cuddly, not to mention playful, outgoing and just a bit silly...well, maybe a lot of silly. I am still a puppy and have a lot of energy to run and play; I will make mistakes like all puppies do and would need to go to an obedience class or two - I am a lab, so you know I'll be the top dog in class! Even though I am small now, just keep in mind I will grow-up to be a large-sized dog. Why don't you make an appointment to see you, so I can cover you with slobbery kisses?

The Royal Oak Animal Shelter is operated as a City service under management of the Royal Oak Police Department.

Our goals are to:

Provide a safe haven for stray animals found within the City limits of Royal Oak or animals given up by Royal Oak residents
Reunite lost animals with their human companions
Place animals into the home best suited to their personalities and needs.

Volunteers who can work between 3pm - 7pm weekdays and 9am - 12pm weekends are always needed. We currently are in need of volunteers who are willing to help clean cages. Interested persons must be at least 18 years of age, or older. Volunteer applications are available at the Shelter, the Royal Oak Police station, or on the City of Royal Oak website. All applications must be approved by the Royal Oak Police Department and take about 2 weeks to process.

Thank you to LuAnn Linker from Wild Birds Unlimited for her consistent support of the shelter!
Ewe-nique Knits - You guys rock! Thank you so much for thinking of us and taking the time to knit so many wonderful 'Take Me Home' blankets for all of our kitties. Our cats really enjoy laying on them - they give you two paws up as well!
A HUGE THANK YOU to Jason from Boy Scout Troop 1629. Jason selected us for his Eagle Scout Project and assembled a small army of friends to worked on our landscaping. Our exterior looks great and we would like to congratulate Jason on his hard work and his Eagle Scout achievement!!
Thank you to the Hollywood Supermarket for their consistent (and much needed) litter donations!
Thank you to Gwen Ross, the Market Manager of the R.O. Farmer's Market, for the constant fundraising support and the special table at the Sunday Flea Market.
