👋Meet Mave, the easygoing 4-year-old Lab/American Bulldog mix who is equal parts fun-loving playing partner and relaxed couch companion!

Why You’ll Love Mave:
🐾🐕Playgroup Professional: Mave is a seasoned master in puppy playgroups, as she's wonderful at showing younger pups the ropes with her great dog manners. Mave has had multiple kennelmates while in our care, so she is dog-friendly but we always recommend a meet & greet!
⚽Toy Enthusiast: She’s happiest with a good toy in her mouth, but when playtime wraps up, her low-energy, mellow side takes over for peaceful lounge sessions.
💉Fully Vetted & Ready: Spayed, microchipped, up to date on all vaccines/prevention, and officially finished with her heartworm treatment—she is cleared from activity restrictions and ready to roll!

Adoption Fee Details:
Today, 9/12: Mave’s adoption fee is completely waived as we clear critical space in our kennels. ALL adult, large breed dogs have waived fees this week!
Sponsored Future: Even after Saturday, you won't pay a dime! A huge thank-you to sweet shelter supporter Lori Walgamotte for sponsoring Mave's adoption fee—meaning her future adopter gets to save that cash and put it straight toward treats, a comfy bed, and spoiling her rotten.

Come meet Mave today and see if she’s the missing piece to your family! 💙🩵 Visit: Adoption Hours are Monday-Saturday 10AM-4PM @ 31078 LA-36, Lacombe, LA 70445 | Email: [email protected] | Call: 985-871-4513

ADOPTION SPOTLIGHT: Elsa 🩷
A125198

Elsa’s story started when her owners decided they “had no time for her,” and she was surrendered to Officer Morgan back in April. Suddenly, this young girl went from having a home to living in a loud, scary shelter kennel. Shortly after arriving, we discovered Elsa was also heartworm positive. Thankfully, that chapter is behind her! She has completed treatment, is off restrictions, and is ready for her next chapter.

We believe Elsa is a 1.5-year-old Alaskan Husky mix, and she is one smart, playful girl. She was lucky enough to score an awesome foster mom who describes her as very sweet, eager to please, and a great little watchdog. She also says she does amazing with her current pup, Bella.

She’s an enthusiastic player who can sometimes get carried away, so she’ll do best with an active family willing to continue working on manners and obedience. Our enrichment team believes Elsa would do best with well-socialized dogs who can appropriately correct her when play gets a little too serious. Our volunteers say she’s playful and great on a leash!

Elsa is fully up to date, and her adoption fee is WAIVED through tomorrow! After everything she’s been through, Elsa deserves a family that has the time to make her feel loved, included, and wanted. Let’s find her one!

ADOPTION SPOTLIGHT: Cameron💙
A125221

Somehow, this handsome little guy has been waiting since April for someone to notice what we already know... Cameron is pretty darn special.

At around 2 years old and just 35 pounds, Cameron is the perfect size and the perfect mix of playful and laid back. He’s happy to go for a walk and keep up with an active family, but when it’s time to relax he is ALL about the cuddles. Sit down next to him and Cameron will happily sit right beside you, taking in everything happening around him.

He’s wonderful with dogs of all sizes, and we believe he would do well with cats too. He has spent time in a home and was reported to be potty trained, gentle, playful and an all-around good boy. Our volunteers describe him as sweet, affectionate, mid energy and a big fan of his walks.

Cameron is heartworm negative and earned an almost perfect score on his behavior assessment. Basically, this happy-go-lucky heartthrob is bringing a whole lot to the table.

And yet, he’s still here.

Being a black dog in a shelter can make finding a home even harder, but Cameron deserves to be seen for the smart, sweet, lovable boy he is.

Looking for a sign to take him home? His is adoption fee is WAIVED through this Saturday! Don’t let Cameron spend another second waiting. Come meet this handsome boy and see why we’re completely smitten with him! Call 985-871-4513

⚠️URGENT - STPAS IS OUT OF KENNELS⚠️

STAY TUNED FOR A LIVE WALK-THRU THIS AFTERNOON AT 1PM!

Remember our Operation: Fight for 50? Our goal was to see our dog population down to a stable, manageable level. Down to 120. We got there and we stayed for a moment and then slowly watched it rise...and rise...and today we find ourselves approaching that same level that began our Operation: Fight for 50. We are officially struggling to find an open kennel for each dog that comes in our door. Crates are in the hall again. Our isolation rooms are being used for new intakes. We are out of kennels.

STPAS has 164 dogs in our care here in the shelter. We have 8 dog surrenders scheduled for the rest of this week and expect to see just as many strays, if not more. We must see more dogs leave our care than come in! The time to save us from another Mayday is NOW!
