Targets and Baselines
Name Date Result Note
Baseline 07-01-2019 48.0 VDACS moved from annual inspections of animal shelters to a risk-based inspection cycle. A risk-based inspection cycle will allow the agency to pursue repeat inspections at higher-risk animal shelters, as opposed to inspecting all shelters annually regardless of outcome. Using this model, VDACS expects to inspect between 33+ and 50+ of animal shelters each fiscal year.
Short Target 2025 None
Long Target 2027 None None

2020 46 VDACS has moved from annual inspections of animal shelters to a risk-based inspection cycle. Because of this change, the agency did not achieve the 100+ target for this performance measure. A risk-based inspection cycle will allow the agency to pursue repeat inspections at higher-risk animal shelters, as opposed to inspecting all shelters annually regardless of outcome. Going forward, VDACS expects to inspect between 33+ and 50+ of animal shelters each fiscal year.
2021 65 We have moved from annual inspections of animal shelters to a risk-based inspection cycle. A risk-based inspection cycle will allow us to pursue repeat inspections at higher-risk animal shelters, as opposed to inspecting all shelters annually regardless of outcome.
