    Sara--

    Are there any plans to include (additional) large municipal shelters in the dataset? I've been told that's a large missing piece of your data. Thank you.

    Best,

    Michael Suttles

    Hi Michael,

    Shelter Animals Count is a self-reported database, so shelters can join at anytime and start sharing their data. New shelters join the database every day. In the Q1 2019 dataset, 28% of data is from government shelters or organizations with contracts, an increase over previous years. Thanks!

    Thanks. The person I spoke to was concerned that SAC does not include most major municipal shelters, so that information has to be FOIAed. I hope you're able to obtain it in the future!
