Being a responsible pet owner
is the first step to protecting yourself and your pet.
Living in Florida we all should have a disaster plan if an
emergency should happen. If you are evacuated from your
home and you go to a local shelter, you will be accepted, but
your pet will not. There are only a very few shelters that
accept pets. One less thing for you to worry about during
an emergency is where your pet will be and who will take care of
them. Reserve your pets place with us before an emergency
happens. There is limited space available.
The following is a list of
items your pet will need for his/her "Survival Kit":
- Collar with ID and Rabies tags and a sturdy leash
- Any medications that your dog will require (30 day
supply)
- Medical records and vaccination information
- Crate or carrier
- Food (at least 14 days supply)
- Zip lock bags for treats, important papers and toys
- Brush and comb
- Blankets or any special comfort item
- Muzzle if necessary
- Mark all pet belongings with name
If
you should be interested in signing your dog up for our
hurricane emergency shelter. please feel free to ask a staff
member for more details.
