Animal Services Website 
New Approach to Lost & Found

Councilman Schaffer today announced the launch of an advanced lost-and-found website, designed by Village resident volunteer Mike Muni. As a result of this grass-roots volunteer effort, the Village may now boast a 24/7 means of getting the electronic word out about lost and found pets. The self-service, independently managed website also provides adoption notices and links to other municipal animal service programs. The new link www.MiamiDadeLostPets.com is presently available on the Palmetto Bay Animal Services web page.
