12/21/10 Talk about cruelty to animals. This Louisiana Pound is a Disgrace. They gas animals after 4 days. No regard for the animal's lives.No adoptions. If the animals are not rescued they are gassed. Louisiana

 " This facility is strictly about animal and rabies control, this pound does NOT have an adoption program to the public. What this means is that pets brought to the pound are DOOMED. No way out alive! Once they are brought to the facility, unless they are reclaimed by their owners or rescued within 4 days, they will be KILLED, since this is the purpose of the place."

Fostering through Animal Aid is possible and can save lives. See application at link.
