JaxPawFinder<\/a>, which debuted in 2025, billed as the city\u2019s first AI-powered app.<\/p>\n\u201cEven brief foster breaks from the shelter are invaluable for our pets, since we learn so much about
them and they have a chance to decompress in a home with a family,\u201d ACPS Chief Michael
Bricker said in the release. <\/p>\n
\u201cEvery kennel we free up by sending a pet to foster or to a loving home means we can help
another animal in need,\u201d he said. \u201cBeing this full is hard on both the dogs and the staff caring for them, and the community stepping up to help will make a huge difference. Lifesaving requires everyone in a
community, and everyone can make a difference.\u201d<\/p>\n
Shelter info<\/p>\n
