We know what we want. We want Miami -Dade to care for our homeless animals. We want Miami -Dade to be a caring place. We tried years ago and were told we were stupid , that we don’t understand what we voted for, we did. Please follow through and give us hope and comfort for our homeless animals.

Please help Cash get home. This case should have been a slam dunk. The nightmare of having a trusted friend take your dog to train and dog sit, while you go on holiday. The sitters intentions are very clear in her messages, but it's your friend and why wouldn't you trust them. Well she wasn't a good friend, she is a scam artist and Cash needs to get home!
Lisa supported: DOGS ARE FAMILY, It’s time our laws catch up: Companion Animal Law Reform
This topic is so important. As a former child services caseworker, we are trained that the most vulnerable to abuse are the victims that aren’t able to speak for themselves, but what about animals? How are they supposed to speak for themselves, make phone for themselves, tell a trusted teacher or health care provider that they’re being harmed? There are too few laws around this and not strong enough penalties for perpetrators. All lives are precious human or not and nothing on earth deserves to be purposefully harmed. This is a serious matter that deserves attention and a bigger platform. The death of an animal due to abuse leaves just as much of an impact on families as the death of a child. To some, their pets are their children. Why should they be treated as less? I would like to see the pressure turned up on legislators to really take this serious and do something about it. I could also go on in detail about the psychopathology that usually precedes animal abuse, along with the following escalation to violence against humans but wrong is wrong and it bares repeating that no matter what, this needs to be addressed.
Meredith supported: Increase Jail Time for Animal Abusers and change the laws.
I don't even own a dog but I walk around the park daily and see it sitting empty most of the week when baseball games are not in session. The park should be accessible to all! It makes the most sense to allow people and dogs to use the park when the ballfields are not being used. It's ridiculous to let the park sit empty all day and deny access to neighbors. The park needs more places for people to sit and more entrance points so that those of us who cannot walk easily can still enjoy the park.
Lindsay supported: Re-Zone Jackson Park. Allow Dog Access Now!
