EPAR

Animal rescue in Ville Platte, LA

We are a young rescue group formed by three women who saw the need in our very poor parish to have SOMEWHERE for our strays and shelter dogs to go. Our parish does not provide a shelter and many towns have dozens of stray dogs. We work solely through a network of foster homes and volunteers. We hold monthly adoption events as well!
