Lake Area Partnerships for Animal Welfare (LAPAW Rescue) is an animal shelter based in Lake Charles, Louisiana, located in Calcasieu Parish, where three other animal shelters or rescues also operate. Situated about 7 miles east of Lake Charles, LAPAW Rescue operates through a foster-based network and works with adoptable dogs, partnering with organizations like PetSmart for national adoption events and Dogs on Deployment to help military members find temporary care for their pets while deployed.
