Take Paws Rescue

Take Paws Rescue is a volunteer, foster-based, non-profit rescue group based out of New Orleans, LA. Our rescued animals live with loving foster families until a forever home is found. We have volunteers all over South East Louisiana. Our new Stray Café in New Orleans also helps a few dogs at a time transition from homelessness to loving forever homes through training, socialization, and love.
We took in around 1600 animals last year, and adopted out over 1400. We're tracking around 120 intakes per month this year.

Testimonials

"Two stray yellow lab puppies showed up to my house. No owners were found. I reached out to Take Paws Rescue and they were immediately on the case! They had fosters lined up ready to take care of them within the week."

"We adopted 1 year old Elsa, and we had a great experience with both the coordinator and the foster. They walked us through the process and ensured we found a pet that was our perfect fit. I recommend this organization - I would definitely use this Rescue again!"

"We adopted a 3 or 4 month old puppy from Take Paws, and he is precious. The foster family potty trained him, and he sleeps through the night. We feel so blessed! Thank you, Take Paws!"
