About Our Rescue Group...
Southpaws Express is an innovative rescue, working closely with high kill shelters in the
rural Louisiana region, and strongly assisted by the goodly St Tammany Humane
Society. Our goal always is to pull highly adoptables from these shelters and to bring
them north, where they have far greater marketability and chance. We are comprised of
densely experienced shelter workers and all breed experts who always aim for perfect
answers and happy endings. Not only have we successfully placed everything from
puppies to seniors in pet homes, but we also have placed dogs in vocations.....hunting,
media, SAR and therapy!!!! If you do not find what you are looking for, let us know and
we can find it! We have ties not only to rural Louisiana, but stretching out to Florida
and Texas also, helmed by highly experienced dog people who are distressed by the
needless and relentless loss of highly adoptable animals, stuck in regions that cannot
support them.

Our Adoption Process...
Southpaws Express is a progressive rescue that prides itself on an intimate,
individualized application process. We strive to make it as friendly and personalized as
we can, and assist with good matching advice and direction, catered to the
individual....the individual dog and adopter. Our application is available on the
southpawsexpress.org site, and introductory emails always are welcomed to Lucy at
ohanne@msn.com. Our standard adoption fee is $300 ($400 for puppies), which helps
defray the weighty cost of transporting our foster dogs up north from their high kill
southern environments and providing an excellence of vet care, but some dogs will be
discounted, due to age or exceptional needs.

We Serve the Following Cities, Towns, and/or Counties...
All eastern states, primarily focusing upon the New England region. We have adopted
as far down as Pennsylvania and as far up as Canada!!!
