Your dog bit someone

Florida Department of Health regulations require that any dog, cat, or ferret that bites a human undergo a mandatory 10-day quarantine to observe for clinical symptoms of rabies, regardless of vaccination history. Healthy pets with a verified home typically complete observation at home under Miami-Dade Animal Services oversight. Do not administer a rabies vaccine during the 10-day observation period. Report bites to Miami-Dade Animal Services by calling 311 or contact the Florida Department of Health in Miami-Dade County at 305-470-5660.

Contact with raccoons, bats, or wild animals

In Florida, raccoons and bats are the primary wildlife carriers of the rabies virus, along with foxes and skunks. If your pet tangles with a wild animal, isolate your pet and notify Animal Services immediately. Wild animals cannot be observed through quarantine and require laboratory testing to assess rabies exposure risk.
