Pet Preparedness During a Hurricane

Pet-Friendly Evacuation Centers animals-pets all-residents Animal Services operates pet-friendly shelters during emergencies. Pre-registration is not required to use the evacuation center. Hurricane season runs from June 1 through November 30. Whatever preparation plans you make for yourself, remember to include your pets. If you're riding out the storm in the home of a family member, friend or neighbor, take your pets with you. <h3>If You Stay Home</h3> If you stay at home, remember to stay together. Keep your pet in a crate or carrier and find a safe area where you will all be together. Keep their collar and tag on in case you get separated. It's always best to microchip your pets since they tend to lose their collars. Pet owners residing in an evacuation zone, unsafe structure or trailer are encouraged to come to a pet-friendly evacuation center. Before disaster strikes, pet owners are encouraged to review the <a href="https://www.miamidade.gov/resources/animals/documents/disaster_tip_sheet_eng.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Animal Supplies Checklist</a> to learn how to prepare pets before, during and after a disaster. <h3>Pet-Friendly Evacuation Centers</h3> Animal Services operates pet-friendly shelters during emergencies. Pre-registration is not required to use the evacuation center. Evacuation centers will be announced as needed.  Upon arrival at the center, pets will be examined by a licensed veterinarian to determine if the pet presents a safety risk. Any pet deemed a risk will not be allowed to enter the evacuation center. noFee

Our mission is to save the lives of abandoned animals in our care, protect animals from cruelty, reunite lost pets with their owners, protect people and pets in our community from health-related issues and ensure the public's safety. Our goals are accomplished through comprehensive adoptions, transfers, low-cost pet vaccination, dog licensing, increased sterilization for dogs and cats, commercial pet regulations, reuniting lost pets with their owners and trap, neuter, return programs for cats. Aside from our lifesaving mission, we also enforce <a href="https://library.municode.com/fl/miami_-_dade_county/codes/code_of_ordinances?nodeId=PTIIICOOR_CH5ANFO" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Chapter 5</a> of the Miami-Dade County Code and Florida Statute 828 (which deals primarily with animal cruelty issues). Our activities include licensing, enforcing rabies vaccination requirements, spay and neuter services, vaccination services for pets, protecting the public from stray and dangerous dogs, promoting animal adoption and public education, and investigating animal cruelty cases. Lifesaving Mission In 2015, Miami-Dade County Animal Services first achieved its lifesaving goal of saving greater than 90 percent of animals entering the shelter. This is a testament to the incredible hard work of the shelter team every day and the addition of new lifesaving programs to include partnerships with rescue organizations, improved pet welfare, foster programs, offsite adoption events, surrender prevention and more. Animal Statistics The Miami-Dade Animal Services Department encourages the public to <a href="https://www.miamidade.gov/global/animals/annual-animal-statistics.page">view our annual animal statistics</a> information, which shows shelter population based on the <a href="https://www.shelteranimalscount.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Asilomar Accords</a> and other methods for calculating the number of animal lives that are saved. In August 2004, a group of animal welfare industry leaders from around the nation convened at Asilomar in Pacific Grove, California to build bridges across varying philosophies, develop relationships and establish goals focused on reducing the euthanasia of healthy and treatable companion animals in the United States. The Asilomar Accords established record-keeping and reporting standards for data associated with shelter animals. To help increase life-saving opportunities, Miami-Dade Animal Services has created a variety of new programs aimed at achieving the highest save rates in the history of the department. <ul> <li><a href="https://www.miamidade.gov/global/animals/annual-animal-statistics.page">View annual animal statistics</a></li> </ul> /resources/images/banners/animal-services.jpg Director Annette Jose Annette Jose /global/government/biographies/animals.page Pet Adoption and Protection Center - 3599 NW 79 Avenue [loc146470117318693] : Doral ^ 33122 loc146470117318693 311 /global/animals/home.page facebook twitter instagram <a class="twitter-timeline" href="https://twitter.com/PetsToLove" data-widget-id="730459858286350336" data-chrome="noheader noborders">Tweets by @PetsToLove</a> <script>!function(d,s,id){var js,fjs=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0],p=/^http:/.test(d.location)?'http':'https';if(!d.getElementById(id)){js=d.createElement(s);js.id=id;js.src=p+"://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js";fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js,fjs);}}(document,"script","twitter-wjs");</script> To request materials in an accessible format, or if you require special accomodations, please contact our ADA Coordinator: Jacob Achinah [email protected] 305-418-7151 animal-services org1450714342984597 loc146470117318693 Pet Adoption and Protection Center 3599 NW 79 Avenue Doral 33122 311 /global/animals/home.page facebook,twitter,instagram https://www.facebook.com/AdoptMiamiPets,https://twitter.com/AdoptMiamiPets,https://www.instagram.com/adoptmiamipets/
