Welcome to Tangi Humane Society
About Us
THS is a 501(c)(3) non-profit dog shelter located in Tangipahoa Parish, Louisiana.
We are a group of concerned individuals who have come together as volunteers to improve the lives of animals in our community, believing full well that they have a right to live in a world where compassion is the norm. THS works tirelessly alongside law enforcement to play an active role in investigating cruelty cases. Most of our "adoptables" are from investigations we have been involved in. Visit our Making a Difference tab if you'd like to read more.
Our priority is to rescue animals that are victims of cruelty, neglect, and abuse.
***For this reason, we cannot accept every owner surrender & stray that is brought in***
Please call to check for availability before making your way over: (985)419-9900
We work to shelter, heal, and rehome as many of these rescues as we can.
Our organization provides rehab and refuge to these poor souls until a loving home can be found for them
and here's how we find them!

Our Mission Statement
Stop Cruelty
We investigate and work with local authorities to enforce laws to protect animals from abuse and neglect. Animal cruelty can be a felony in Louisiana. We actively work to aid in the prosecution and punishment of animal abusers.
Restore Health
When animals come into the care of Tangi Humane Society, they are first quarantined and receive appropriate veterinary care. We provide a safe, clean environment so they can heal, regain their strength and ultimately find new, loving homes.
Loving Homes
When our rescues are ready for adoption, we host Pet Adoption Days in the community so people can meet and possibly adopt our rescued pets. Applications are taken and carefully considered before any animal is adopted. Visit our Facebook page to see when the next event will be!
Teach Respect
Tangi Humane Society Volunteers speak in local elementary schools on the importance of humane animal care and responsible pet ownership. They also work with local community groups to raise funds and awareness to help end the cycle of animal neglect and pet overpopulation.
Stop Overpopulation
Spay or neuter is mandatory for animals adopted through THS. When we speak in schools we emphasize the importance of the spay/neuter process and provide examples of how quickly things can get out of control, as well as the health and behavior benefits of it.
