• Animal Emergency Response Plan Template 
Produced by Michigan State University Extension and the Office of the State Veterinarian, this template considers all pets including general pets and exotics, servant animals such as leader dogs, equine (horses) and agricultural animals such as farm livestock and exotics. The plan may be used as a stand-alone plan or excerpts may be used to develop/enhance an 'annex' to the overall emergency plan in the county.

• Disaster Planning for Animal Guardians
The Michigan Humane Society has two documents to help you and your pets prepare for an emergency. The checklist will provide you with things to consider for your pets when making an emergency plan: evacuation supplies, how to shelter-in-place or evacuate, what to do after the emergency, and what information to include in your plan. In the event that you get separated from your pet, the reclaim card will be an invaluable tool.
