​ ​​​​​Time is of the essence when you are trying to find your lost pet, especially if your pet is not wearing a Broward County Rabies Registration Tag or is without a tattoo or microchip containing identification information. We are required to hold lost pets with identification for five days (not including holidays and when the shelter is closed) and animals without identification for three days, in the hopes that they can be reunited with their owners.

Report a lost pet here.

As a pet owner, you are responsible for making every effort to find your pet. You should:

If you see your dog or cat on our website, please contact us right away at 954-357-9758 or e-mail us at admissions@broward.org​.  We will then make an appointment with you to come in and claim your pet. 

PLEASE NOTE: We always attempt to call you if your dog or cat comes into our Adoption Center and has identification (Broward County Rabies Registration Tag, tattoo, microchip or ID tag). However, as a pet owner, it is your responsibility to contact us about your lost pet and to make every effort to find him.​
