NEW ORLEANS (WGNO) — Officials with the New Orleans Police Department and city leaders cut the ribbon on a new, state-of-the-art kennel facility for the department’s K-9 unit.
According to the NOPD, the new facility features 10 climate-controlled spaces, as well as indoor and outdoor access for kennels, new training equipment, improved lighting and improved water access.
The $316,000 project also includes upgrades to fencing and elevation for flood protection.
NOPD Lt. Regina Williams said at Friday’s ribbon-cutting ceremony that the upgrades have been needed for a while.
“The last K-9 kennels were built in the 1960’s. But now, in 2025, we turn the page to a new chapter. A modern, state-of-the-art facility now stands, dedicated to the incredible work of this unit,” said Williams.
