About St. Bernard Parish Animal Control

We may not be the biggest shelter in the metropolitan area, but we are trying hard to be one of the best! The Animal Control division of parish government assumes a unique position in our community. We combine the activities of a humane organization which protects animals, a law enforcement agency which protects people and their interests, and a public health agency which protects people from the dangers and diseases of animals. Thanks to our private support group - Friends of the Animal Shelter - our public shelter provides many services rarely offered by government-run shelters. Visit our website for more information.

Adopt a Pet is the easiest way for you to search for a new pet in Violet, LA.

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?

Why should you adopt?

Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.

What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?

When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.

So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
