Humane Society of Louisiana, Magnolia Chapter

We are a small, all volunteer group who want to eliminate the problem of abandoned, neglected , abused animals in Washington Parish. Our area has a huge problem with abandoned dogs and cats for several reasons. One of the major reasons is the lack of affordable spay/neuter programs and lack of knowledge as to the value of spay/neuter. We started a high volume, low cost spay/neuter program in February 2009 and have spayed/neuterd over 1500 cats and dogs since then. We received a PetSmart grant to subsidize our program. We schedule 40 to 50 dogs and cats once per month and will continue to do this as long as we have volunteers, a participating vet and funds. We have 3 foster homes and are able to rescue a few animals. We have contacts with other rescue groups and are building a network for our beautiful parish.
