Miami-Dade County Animal Services (Animal Services) has announced it has returned to a seven-day per week operation effective Sunday, Oct. 10, and resume Sunday hours from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., which were suspended at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Returning to the seven-day schedule will provide pet owners and prospective adopters with more options in scheduling needed services for their pets at the Wellness Clinic or visiting the Pet Adoption and Protection Center to adopt a new best friend.
“We are thrilled to be able to return to an extended schedule which offers our residents more options for their convenience in caring for their pets or visiting us to take home a new four-legged family member,” said Lorna Mejia-Lopez, interim director of Animal Services.
The Pet Adoption and Protection Center now is open Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 6:30 p.m., as well as Saturdays and Sundays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Animal Services is the largest municipal animal shelter in South Florida and has been a nationally recognized No-Kill facility every year since 2015.
