Fifteen dogs from Miami-Dade County Animal Services found their forever homes at the 18th annual Miami Heat Heatapalooza family festival on Sunday.
The annual Miami Heat Family Festival is hosted by the Miami Heat Charitable Fund and brings together fans, players, coaches and celebrities for a day of family fun in an effort to raise money for local charities.
“This is the second year that The Miami Heat Charitable Fund invites Animal Services to participate in the festival and we are extremely grateful for the opportunity and for their support in our mission to bring adoptions into the community to help save the lives of shelter pets,” said Alex Muñoz, Director of Miami-Dade County Animal Services.”
As a part of its mission, Miami-Dade County Animal Services participates at community events like Heatapalooza, and offers programs including low cost spay/neuter services, vaccinations, preventative care medicine and other resources to pet owners in targeted and under-served communities.
