League for Animal Protection

Welcome to the League for Animal Protection (LAP), a dedicated non-profit, no-kill shelter located in the beautiful Roanoke Valley. Our mission is simple yet profound: to rescue abandoned dogs and cats, providing them with essential medical treatment, shelter, and unconditional care until they can find their forever homes. At LAP, we believe that every animal deserves a second chance at life. Our team of dedicated volunteers and compassionate supporters work tirelessly to ensure that each rescued animal receives the love and attention they require during their stay with us. We take pride in our holistic approach to animal care and are committed to fostering a nurturing environment where animals can thrive. Our funding is derived from generous private donations, membership fees, and engaging fundraising events within the community. This financial support allows us to continue our critical work and expand our outreach efforts, making a real difference in the lives of countless animals in need. In line with our values, we follow an adoption policy designed to ensure the safety and well-being of our animals. Most adoptions require fenced yards to provide a secure space for our pets to roam and play. We conduct thorough home checks and veterinary verifications on current and past pets of the adopting individual and personally deliver each animal to their new home, ensuring a smooth transition. Join us in our commitment to rescue, protect, and provide loving homes for vulnerable animals. Together, we can make a positive impact on the lives of countless furry friends while promoting a culture of compassion and responsibility within our community.
