Doral, Miami‑Dade Animal Services promote pet adoptions; spotlight Ivy and Ocean
Summary
The City of Doral, working with Miami‑Dade Animal Services, highlighted two shelter animals and encouraged residents to adopt to ease local shelter crowding.
The City of Doral, in collaboration with Miami‑Dade Animal Services, promoted a local pet adoption effort and highlighted two shelter animals seeking homes, city staff said.
City of Doral staff described Ivy as a “sweet and gentle” dog waiting for a permanent home and Ocean as a “stunning 2‑year‑old tuxedo cat” who would do best in a calm household, the announcement said. The city encouraged residents to consider adoption to help ease overcrowding at the local shelter.
The announcement said the shelter that houses the animals is located in Doral and has a variety of dogs and cats available. The city noted that adopting a shelter animal brings a new family member into the home and urged residents to visit the web address provided for more information: miamiday.gov/animal.
The promotion was presented as a community outreach item; no formal council action, vote, or funding decision was announced during the remarks.
Local officials and shelter partners have used similar outreach to connect animals with adopters and reduce shelter populations, the city said.
