Story
Meet Alma. Immediately upon meeting Alma, it is clear what a special and sweet personality she has. She is a quiet and gentle girl who loves to love and be loved. She is incredibly cuddly, and her favorite thing is curling up with her people. She is polite, playful, and good with other dogs, enjoying everything from chasing a ball or frisbee to being silly and rolling around in the grass. She is smart and walks well on a leash. After being neglected and abandoned by her previous owner, Alma escaped her yard and was hit by a car. She suffered no major injuries and is now healthy and up to date on her vaccines. Despite everything she has been through, she remains loving and playful. Alma will thrive in a stable, loving home with a predictable routine to help her continue recovering from the trauma of abandonment. She is a very sweet girl who deserves to feel safe, cherished, and secure. Alma is ready for her forever home and has so much love to give.

We adopted Shough as a friend for our elderly chihuahua after our other dog passed away. Shough is high energy and needs a family to run that energy out or give him a job to do. He can mischievous if you don’t put food up, just fyi! We love Shough, but unfortunately we have to prioritize our elderly dog and at the moment Shough is just not the dog for us.

Story
?? Daphne headed north… but Velma is still waiting in NOLA. ??Velma and her sister, Daphne, hold a bittersweet little piece of Zeus’ Rescues history — they were the final two dogs ever dumped over the fence at our old Napoleon location before we closed that chapter, tore down the fence, and moved to Freret.Well, Daphne recently got her ticket out! She hopped on a transport up North, where she’ll have a new opportunity to find her forever home.But Velma is still here in New Orleans, wondering when it will be her turn.At just 1.5 years old, Velma has already had enough uncertainty for one little lifetime. She’s ready to trade being left behind for being chosen.And this girl is SO ready.?? Dog friendly and would love a canine buddy?? Equal parts playful and loving?? A loyal sidekick with a heart of gold?? Always up for an adventure?? Equally happy settling in for couch cuddles?? Professional shadow and full-time best friendVelma is also ALL young dog. She’s happy, energetic, playful and sometimes a little rambunctious because apparently no one has informed her that she isn’t a tiny puppy anymore. ??Because of her enthusiasm for life, Velma would do best in a home with older children who won’t mind her exuberant personality and can keep up with her.She’s sweet, resilient, dog friendly and still ridiculously optimistic about humans despite the way her story started.Her sister has moved on to her next chapter. Now we need to make sure Velma doesn’t get forgotten.She doesn’t need a transport ticket.She needs a HOME.A couch. A person. Maybe a dog sibling. A family.

Story
Meet Daisy JaneDaisy Jane is only 2 years old, but somehow she’s already lived through one of the cruelest realities a dog can face.She was found as a stray, surviving on her own… only for her owner to be located and simply say he didn’t want her anymore.And honestly? That stings.Because too often, once dogs are no longer tiny, “cute” puppies, they’re discarded like yesterday’s news. Tossed aside when they still have years of love, loyalty, and life left to give.Daisy deserves better.She’s also a black dog — and sadly, “black dog syndrome” is very real. Black dogs are statistically overlooked in shelters far more often, passed by for flashier coats while absolute gems like Daisy wait far too long.But Daisy Jane?She has SO much living left to do.She absolutely loves long walks with our incredible volunteer dog walking army, thrives on companionship, and is ready for someone who understands that healing takes patience.Daisy doesn’t enjoy being alone, and after being abandoned by the only home she knew, can you really blame her?She would do best in:A calm, stable homeAn adult-only household or one without young childrenA patient adopter who understands fearful dogsA family willing to show her that forever really means foreverDaisy Jane may scare easily, but beneath that uncertainty is a beautiful soul who simply wants safety, consistency, and love.She’s not broken.She’s rebuilding.And we know the right person is out there — someone who will see beyond her past and give her the future she deserves.Let’s prove to Daisy that her story doesn’t end with being abandoned. It starts with being chosen. Thanks. Michelle#zeusrescues

Story
My name is Harper, and I’m a 6-month-old Harper mix with a heart as big as my puppy paws.Even though I’m just a baby, I’ve already had a bit of a rough start. My owner could no longer care for me and brought me to a municipal shelter. Thankfully, I didn’t have to stay there long— I was rescued by ARNO Animal Rescue New Orleans and given a fresh chance at the happy life I’ve been waiting for.Now I’m safe, and I’m showing everyone who I really am: a sweet, playful, and affectionate little girl. I love toys of all kinds, I enjoy romping and playing with other dogs, and when I’m done playing, I’m all about cuddles and soaking up love.I’m still young, so I’m learning as I go, but I’m eager, friendly, and ready to grow up in a home where I can feel secure, loved, and included. With a little patience and a lot of affection, I’m going to make someone a very loyal best friend.If you’re looking for a happy, playful pup who’s ready to start fresh and blossom beside you, I might just be your girl, Harper. 🐾________________________________________________If you would like to meet one of our adoptables or learn more about them, please submit an application at https://animalrescueneworleans.org/adoptfoster/.**Note: Our shelter is open by scheduled appointment only after your application is approved.
