VIRTUAL ADOPTION EVENTS FOR DOGS

Facebook Live! Virtual Dog Adoptions with Miami-Dade Animal Services

FoMA, in partnership with Miami Dade Animal Services (“MDAS”) has been hosting Facebook Live virtual adoption events to help connect potential adopters and the county’s shelter dogs in need of a loving home. Every other Thursday at 11 A.M., you can tune in from the comfort of your home and screen to FoMA’s Facebook page and watch a selection of adorable, adoptable dogs being presented live from the shelter. Potential adopters may email MDAS directly at AdoptMiamiPets@miamidade.gov with the name + ID number of the dog in the email subject. Watch here our latest adoption event! It’s never too late to meet your new furry best friend!

Adoption Considerations

Finding the right match when adopting is key to the successful addition of a new furry family member. Some things to consider when looking for a dog or cat to add to your family are whether you rent or own your home and any restrictions that apply if you rent; whether you have other pets or small children in the home, whether you are new to owning a pet, and how much time you are able to dedicate to keeping your pet happy and safe.

Adopt Now

You can go to www.petharbor.com to find pets near you, of every size, color, temperament and breed. Purebred and mix breed animals alike are waiting for their forever homes!
