There is a comment added that reads,
"Note: Dispositions of "Rescued" should be considered "Transferred Out". There is no distinction between Within Area and Outside Area as there is no formal transfer program. Rescued animals go to approved rescue groups that could be located inside or outside of the area." This comment may reflect a misunderstanding of the statute. The statute in question is below.
(2)(a) Each public or private animal shelter, humane organization, or animal control agency operated by a humane organization or by a county, municipality, or other incorporated political subdivision, shall prepare and maintain the following records and make them available for public inspection and dissemination for the 3 preceding years. The following data will be available on a monthly basis commencing July 31, 2013:
1. The total number of dogs and cats taken in by the animal shelter, humane organization, or animal control agency, divided into species, in the following categories:
a. Surrendered by owner;
b. Stray;
c. Impounded;
d. Confiscated;
e. Transferred from within Florida;
f. Transferred into or imported from out of the state; and
g. Born in shelter.
