Recommendation
Motion to proclaim November 7, 2021 as Delray to the Dogs Day.
Body
Background:
Every 10 seconds, a cat or dog is euthanized in a shelter in the United States. In 2013, the nonprofit Pets Broward was founded to change this statistic by rescuing, fostering, and promoting adoptions and animal welfare services for pets in need. Locals from the City of Delray Beach have partnered with Pets Broward to organize its first annual Pooches and Presents in the Park event; to bring the community together, encourage residents to adopt animals, and improve the lives of dogs by finding them forever homes.
