5. Best Friends

I’m sure that many of you have at least heard of the Best Friend Animal Sanctuary. The find pets who have been abandoned or abused and adopt them until they can find other homes for the animals. They where one of the first groups to arrive to help out after Hurricane Katrina and they also rehabilitated many of Michel Vicks dogs when they where taken away from him. It is a fantastic area to visit if you love animals, want to adopt an animal or just want to help out.

Visiting the sanctuary will help to support the park as it relies on donations to stay up and running.
