Miami-Dade County Animal Services Department
Protecting the public's safety, saving animals and finding pets new, loving homes.
<p>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.</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>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).</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p><strong>Lifesaving Mission</strong></p>
<p>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.</p>
<p><strong>Animal Statistics</strong></p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>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.</p>
