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&nbsp;<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&nbsp;new programs aimed at achieving the highest save rates in the history of the department.</p> <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> <p>To request materials in an accessible format, or if you require special accomodations, please contact our ADA Coordinator:</p> 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/
