Who we Are: We are a Team of professional public servants who understands the importance of animal welfare to include reuniting lost dogs or cats of Daytona Beach with their rightful owners. Every pet is special and we make it a priority to reunite them to their owners and work in partnership with the Halifax Humane Society to find them a loving home that they deserve.

The successful partnership’s goal is to reduce the number of free-roaming cats over time by humanely trapping, sterilizing and returning healthy cats to their original locations, which helps stabilize colonies and reduces nuisance behaviors. Daytona Beach Animal Services Unit will continue to partner with the Halifax Humane Society and Concerned Citizens for Animal Welfare (CCFAW) on its TNR program. Volusia County will also perform a limited number of services each month. The county will also assist with Dangerous Dog cases when needed and with cases where a dog requires quarantine. New veterinary support: The city has an agreement with Dr. Shelby Wolfe of Granada Animal Hospital in Ormond Beach to support local TNR efforts. Dr. Wolfe will perform additional sterilizations per month, expanding the city’s capacity to manage community cat populations.
