Humane Society of Greater Miami to offer free spay/neuter services to pets belonging to City of Miami Residents |
|
The MAC is part of an alliance between Miami-Dade County Animal Services and the Humane Society of Greater Miami. "The MAC unit gives us a chance to offer these services at no cost to qualifying residents in the City of Miami," said Emily Márquez-Dulin, executive director of the Humane Society of Greater Miami. "We have a unique alliance with Miami-Dade Animal Services, which actually owns the MAC vehicle, while funding for the program is provided by a grant from Florida Animal Friends." "We're thrilled to kick-off this program in the City of Miami and we look forward to other Miami-Dade municipalities joining our efforts," added Márquez-Dulin. This overall campaign is part of an effort spearheaded by the South Florida Animal Welfare Association, a collaboration of animal welfare organizations from Monroe County to the Treasure Coast, that promotes the spaying and neutering of pets. However, the Humane Society of Greater Miami maintains an on-going program to inform the public about the importance of this issue. In fact, the Humane Society of Greater Miami seeks to transform the public's perception about pet sterilization, which is paramount to ending the serious pet overpopulation problem in Miami-Dade County.
Founded in 1936, the Humane Society of Greater Miami Adopt-A-Pet is dedicated to placing every dog and cat in its care into a loving home, and to promoting responsible pet ownership and spay/neuter programs. Betty GARCIA 786 229 3636 PROPERTIES FOR SALE AND FOR RENT IN MIAMI AND SOUTH FLORIDA |
