Metairie Humane

Dog shelter in Metairie, LA

We are a non profit rescue that pays out of pocket for all housing, feed and vet care. We welcome donations to help us with our effort to place our dogs. An animal is never turned back after learning about a medical condition. We do not purposely pick any breed dogs.
We place or pension all animals taken in by us. We strongly support spay and neuter of all cats and dogs.
"Connecting humans with pet companions, destined to be a lifetime love affair." This is Metairie Humane Shelter.
