Building the Future of Lifesaving

​

Located at 5813 Plauche Street in Jefferson, Louisiana, this facility represents a defining moment for Take Paws Rescue.

​

It is not a relocation.
It is an expansion of infrastructure.
A multiplication of impact.

​

Our original Banks Street location in New Orleans will remain active and vital. This new building allows us to evolve — to move from operating within limitations to operating with intention and capacity.

​

Take Paws Rescue consistently takes on dogs that are medically complex, that have behavioral challenges, that need urgent placement, or time to heal before adoption. We have done so creatively, resourcefully, and often at the edge of space and infrastructure.

​

This facility changes that.

​

The Plauche Street location will allow us to:

• Create a structured intake and recovery environment
• Expand safe, humane housing designed for stability and rehabilitation
• Operate an on-site veterinary clinic to reduce medical costs and increase speed of care
• Strengthen foster placement through centralized support
• Offer community-focused services that help prevent surrender before crisis occurs

​

This is a shift from reactive rescue to proactive systems-building.

From short-term problem solving to long-term sustainability.

From borrowed space to permanent foundation.

​

With two facilities working in tandem, Take Paws Rescue is building something larger than square footage. We are building infrastructure for compassion. A scalable model of care. A rescue operation designed not just for today’s emergencies, but for tomorrow’s.

​

This is what it looks like when a rescue grows up.

​

Not smaller.
Not quieter.
Stronger.
Smarter.
Built to last.
