Animal Services

Caddo Parish Animal Services is an open-admission shelter meaning no homeless animal is turned away. Our goal is to reunite lost pets with their owners and when that is not possible, find a new home for them, provided that they are healthy and not aggressive.

Animal Services has a myriad of responsibilities to include the enforcement of Chapter 8 of the Code of Ordinances for Caddo Parish and Chapter 14 of the Code of Ordinances for the City of Shreveport. The Department specifically serves the population of homeless animals in Caddo Parish.
