Lafayette Animal Shelter & Care Center is a municipal facility, and is therefore obligated to intake every animal that comes to the facility no matter the amount of space available. We ask that citizens hold on to strays for at least 3 days in attempt to find its owner. Studies have shown that most dogs are found within a few miles of its home.
