TODAY'S KEY MESSAGE
Fire Safety And Prevention
|
|
We saw over the weekend how hot, dry, windy conditions can fuel big fires, from wildfires up north to a big recycling fire in central Phoenix. Maricopa County Emergency Management has tips for how to protect your home and stay safe during what is expected to be a busy fire season. |

COVID-19 Vaccinations And Data
|
|
 Figures that show the percent of the Maricopa County population that has received at least one vaccine have been updated to use the most recent ADHS 2020 population denominators. A few percentages have decreased slightly since last week’s data, due to larger increases in some population categories.
Why Should I License My Dog?
-
It’s the law. In Maricopa County, all dogs over three months of age are required by law to be licensed and vaccinated against rabies. The tag you receive the first time your dog is licensed should always be attached to their collar – it is proof that your dog has been licensed and will help you avoid a citation and fees for failure to license.
-
Free ride home! If your dog is picked up at large by an Animal Control Officer, having a current license and contact information on file means your dog will be returned directly to you that same day (when possible), without your dog having to come into the shelter.
-
It’s life-saving. The fees collected from licensing directly support the daily care of the 30,000 animals that enter the shelter each year; licensing your dog helps all the other dogs and cats at Maricopa County Animal Care and Control that are waiting to find their forever homes too.
