Our approach to rescue is at its core fundamentally different than conventional methods. Bluetails is a non-profit, volunteer animal rescue organization, but unlike other groups we receive the majority of our funding through providing Pet Care Services throughout the Greater New Orleans area. However, like other rescue organizations, we do graciously accept donations.

Bring the best of both worlds together. Many pets today are adopted from shelters and rescue organizations. What better way to complete the circle and have your pet pampered and cared for by us, which gives a second chance to another needy animal. By providing Pet Care Services, that we enjoy doing, we in turn fund a a mission we are passionate about... Rescue.

We are dedicated to rescuing dogs left homeless for whatever reason – animals in public shelters where they are at high risk of euthanasia due to pet overpopulation, pets given up by their owners because of difficult circumstances, and those in danger of abuse or neglect.

We place dogs and cats in loving, responsible, committed permanent homes, following a comprehensive adoption process which includes taking considerable care in finding good matches and educating prospective adopters about the responsibilities and costs of bringing a pet into their homes and lives.

Animals in our care are spayed or neutered, receive all appropriate veterinary care and treatment, and placed in nurturing foster homes while they await placement in their permanent homes.

Our group remains interested in and committed to the welfare of the animal beyond the adoption process.

Finally, we strive to work with area shelters and other rescue and humane organizations to develop a network of supporters and volunteers in order to create a better world for homeless pets.
