News for Pet Owners

Sound animal preparednessAnimal emergencies create danger for animals and their owners. Lack of preparation leads to unnecessary tragedy, human injury, and economic loss. Pets are the Number One reason people return to their homes before local authorities have declared it safe to do so, risking lives in the effort to save beloved pets. Pennsylvania is home to millions of agricultural and domestic animals. SART encourages all pet owners to evacuate with their animals to prevent endangering human and animal lives. By remembering to include your pets as part of your family's emergency evacuation plan, you can avoid those last minute decisions that could endanger the safety of your family and pets.
