What are the hours of The Dog Pound?
No opening hours are on record. Call at (772) 200-0913 or check its website before visiting; many shelters keep separate hours for adoptions, intake and lost-pet searches.
How do I adopt from The Dog Pound?

Can I surrender a pet to The Dog Pound?
Call the shelter before you bring an animal in. Many shelters and most rescues take owner surrenders by appointment only, some charge a surrender fee, and some keep a waiting list.

The municipal animal control shelter is usually required to accept animals from residents of its city or county.
