That is an upshot from a 2020 survey of shelters statewide by the University of Florida College of Veterinary Medicine. “The hope is that these progressive changes that seek to help families keep their pets and prevent the need to institutionalize them will be sticky and persist past the pandemic,” said Dr. Julie Levy, professor of shelter medicine. “There is a whole new reimagining of sheltering that has given rise  to a new organization  Human Animal Support Services.”
