A surrendered dog(meaning someone brought in the animal)can be euthanized as soon as the following day.
An impounded dog(caught by Animal Control) is held for (at least)5 days for their owners to "claim them".
During the 5 day period, anyone interested in the dog
can put their name on a waiting list. The dog will become available after the 5 days. The waiting list goes by the order of the people's names (first come, first serve). Just a little note: If you find that there are names already on a waiting list, please add your name anyway. Sometimes the first couple of people on the list do not adopt the dog. If a dog's owner does not claim them & there is no one on the waiting list, the dog will be euthanized.
This shelter houses 300-400 dogs/puppies as well as 100's of cats/kittens.
Some of the dog breeds are: Dalmations, Mastiffs,Siberian Huskies, Rotties, Chows, Labs, German Shepherds, Beagles, Pit Bulls (cannot adopt out to a Miami resident), Dobermans, St. Bernards, Akitas, Jack Russel Terriers, Golden Retrievers, Poddles, Malteses, English Springer Spaniels, Boxers, Yorkies, Shih Tzu's..the list is endless.

If anyone can help any of these animals PLEASE PLEASE email us or contact the shelter directly.

Most of the time when you call you will get an answering machine. Don't get discouraged, please keep calling,you need to be VERY persistant.
These animals are in need of some desperate help!They need loving permanent homes but remember, giving an animal a foster home is like giving that animal a second chance at life.
