As a big, black, and fearful dog, Ace has some odds stacked against him. But luckily for him, he also has a big team of people working with him to become more confident, and to show him that we are there to help him and to love him. With proper intros, Ace is making friends left and right! If you are wondering, proper intros for Ace means no direct eye contact, speaking softly, offering treats, and letting him approach you. It can take some time for that tail to become untucked and that`s okay. You can`t rush this kind of thing. You know when you have Ace`s seal of approval because he will show you his naughty side! We diligently redirect him and he is learning quickly what kind of behavior gets rewarded. And who doesn`t love rewards?! You may also get some nibbly kisses once he really feels comfortable with you. According to his surrender notes, Ace is house trained, crate trained, and has lived with another dog. He is afraid of lawn mowers but loves car rides, squeaky toys, and tug of war. His notes also say, `He barks when he sees someone. Then hides. He watches them for a little bit and then loves them.` We love you, too, Ace. So much. I weigh approximately 69 lbs. Click here to view my paperwork. show less

This very good boy was initially shy and a bit scared when he first arrived but he`s come out of his shell so much! Alfalfa is now confident and goofy and he LOVES adventure! Whether it be going on a hike at McKinney Falls State Park, or going swimming, or even just hopping in the car for some sightseeing – Alfalfa is your guy!Alfafa is not only curious and adventurous, he is also a smarty pants! He knows several commands (sit, down, and shake), and we`re pretty sure he`d love to learn a few more. Oh, and he is somewhat of a diva… that’s right, Alfafa loves it when you brush his hair. He’ll thank you by wagging his bushy tail and maybe even giving you a kiss or two!As a larger, black dog, Alfafa is often overlooked here. When you walk past his kennel, he`ll bark and jump, but all he`s trying to say is `pick me!`. And he doesn`t understand why nobody ever does pick him :( Alfalfa just needs someone to give him a chance, which is why we`re hoping to find him a foster home, so they can see the amazing dog he is without all the stress of being at the shelter. As a member of the Orange Dot Crew, Alfafa will go home with everything you need, including a crate, harness, goodie bag, a training voucher, and all the support you need. show less

Apricot shines best as a personal human companion for adults and older children. There`s a soft side to Apricot and she loves to show it. She has great home manners and prefers a home with human companionship where she won`t be left for long, long hours daily but she is indeed crate trained for those shorter stretches when her people are away. Apricot is part of the Classic Canines nonprofit advocacy program at Austin Animal Center. show less

Hey there, it’s Ava. I’m looking for my furever home! I am a sweet girly, timid at first, but I will warm up to you quickly. I`m currently paired up with another dog in my shelter space, and would do well as a doggy buddy to another dog. The shelter is a scary space for me, with lots of big noises. I want out! Can you be the one to help me gain my confidence and live out my best doggy life?Click here to view my behavior notes. show less

Baby is such a sweet pocket-sized pittie! This little guy was surrendered to the shelter with a handful of other pups. Baby is shy when first meeting people and he wants nothing more than to be part of a pack again. At the shelter he seems to get along best with more lowkey female dogs, so we would host a meet and greet to make sure your current canine family is a great fit. Want to make Baby your new right-hand man? Reach out to us to meet this sweet guy! Click here to view my paperwork. show less
