My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Please contact info@petadoptionservices.org for more information about this pet.

Armadillo is a shepherd mix that LOVES cuddles and kisses.  This girl is hella smart!  A local trainer noted Armi's attention to detail aka "ball drive," and went through quite a bit of training to be considered for TSA or K-9 work.  Turns out Armi wasn't down for on-call or 9-5 work and prefers to be a  independent contractor. She just couldn't bear the thought of anything interrupting zoomie time with her foster brother.
With that said, she is still best suited for a forever home of one of 3 types....
1.  Retired canine military personnel 
2.  K-9 LEO that understands her drive
3.  An active family with a big yard, no other pets and a LOT of throw toys.
Or just someone who understands.
She is truly an amazing dog.  Please consider the girl.  
*Long distance adoptions may be considered for the right person.

Current on vaccinations, neutered, and microchipped. Current on flea preventative and heartworm preventative. 

*Local adoptions (within 1 hour of New Orleans). We do NOT ship animals. Home check is required, therefore, we will be delivering this dog to your home.

If you have read the information in the links provided above and think that this dog is a fit for your lifestyle and home,please completed a   Dog Adoption Application

Our adoptions include a foster period of 4-6 weeks so that you can be sure that this pet is a good fit without any pressure, and we are available to answer any behavior or training questions during that time (and beyond, if you wish).

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

The average adoption fee for dogs is $150, though some adoption fees may be occasionally lower or a bit higher. All animals offered for adoption are spayed or neutered, heartworm negative or undergoing treatment, up to date on vaccinations, treated for intestinal parasites, and microchipped. In addition to completing an adoption contract, potential adopters should be prepared to agree to a veterinarian reference check and home visit. A valid drivers license or state I.D. card is required. This simple yet thorough screening process allows us to place the right animal in your committed, loving home.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

Because each of our rescues lives in the home of one of our fosterparents, arrangements will be made for the adopter to meet the pet in which they are interested. Also, PAS holds a monthly adoption day at the Petsmart on Veterans Blvd in Metairie.

More about this rescue

Pet Adoption Services, Inc. is a non-profit all breed cat and dog rescue organization in New Orleans. Supported by over 20 volunteer members, Pet Adoption Services was founded in 1996, although some of our members have been involved in rescue for over 20 years. Our mission is to secure loving permanent homes for homeless, abandoned or abused cats and dogs of all breeds. While awaiting adoption, our animals live in the homes of one of our foster parents. During this time the animals receive any necessary veterinary care, including but not limited to, vaccinations, spaying or neutering and heartworm treatment. Our experienced foster parents continually assess each pet's personality and temperament allowing us to place adoptable cats and dogs in just the right permanent home. Pet Adoption Services participates in adoption days during which time, potential adopters get the opportunity to meet and spend time with the animals in a "real life" situation.
