My story

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

I am a fun loving, well behaved girl that loves to play and snuggle. I'm kennel trained, potty trained, I listen to commands and I get along well with other dogs. I haven't lived in a house with cats but I do chase the ones that end up in my backyard so I probably would do better in a cat-free home. I do fantastic in social situations, am great at hanging out at Dat Dog or TchoupYard and I love to go on car rides - so you can take me anywhere! I love yummy treats and I'll gladly snack on any ice cube that accidentally falls out the freezer.

Likes: Snacks. Playing fetch with a tennis ball. Zoomies in the backyard. Walks. Soft toys (and removing their squeakers and stuffing). Naps on the couch. Laying outside in the sun. The Saints & Pelicans

Dislikes: Thunder & thunderstorms. Walmart King Cake. Balls bigger than a tennis ball that don't squeak. The Falcons

Things I'm good at: Riding in the car. Using a doggy door. Walking on a leash. Playing with other dogs. Being cute. Alerting you that I see someone outside the window. Sitting & laying on command. Not running out the door when you get home or when someone comes in. Baths (although I don't love them!)

Things I'm getting better at: Sharing my toys with other dogs

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

The LA/SPCA pet adoption process includes meeting with a matchmaker to match your lifestyle with the perfect companion. You will spend time with any of the pets you think would be a great companion. You may even want to come back another day to make sure he is the one! All of our animals must be spayed or neutered before you can take them home. Sometimes your perfect companion has not had this procedure done, so please be patient with us if you have to come back to pick him up.



All of our animals have been spayed or neutered before they are released for adoption. We encourage anyone with animals to spay or neuter their pets.

More about this shelter

Chartered in 1888, the Louisiana Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (LA/SPCA) is the oldest and most comprehensive animal welfare organization in the state. Our mission is to advocate for the animals of Louisiana by advancing their welfare, promoting their interests, and fostering the human-animal bond through innovative programs, education, and service.

The LA/SPCA is not a state, parish or city governed shelter. We are an independent 501(c)3 non-profit offering a broad range of services and programs including advocacy, legislative services, statewide cruelty investigations, sheltering, full-service animal control (Orleans Parish only), adoption, disaster response, education, and obedience programs.
