When you come in to meet Rocky, be sure to congratulate him because he officially received his certificate in Basic manners, a 6 week training at Every Dog Austin. This well mannered 1-year-old, has a big heart, and even better manners! These new skills are sure to make his transition to his forever home that much easier.
Rocky`s lived in an apartment complex with older children previously, which shows that he can live in a high traffic environment, and even with kids again!
As a 1-year-old, Rocky is in the prime of his playful and active stage. Whether it`s playing fetch in the backyard or going for long walks, Rocky is ready for any adventure. He would do great in a family or with an owner that has an active lifestyle, or a secure yard for lots of playtime.
Rocky is house trained, leash trained, and knows tricks and commands already! He will happily show off for a treat. Big congrats to Rocky, our newest graduate. Next accomplishment: Finding his people & his forever home.

Our shelter has more than 500 available cats and dogs every day! For pets at the shelter: Adoptions must be completed in-person at the shelter. AAC is open for adoption walk-ins every day from 11 a.m. – 7 p.m. A shelter pet’s availability can change at any time, so we recommend choosing a few favorites. For pets in foster: Go to www.AustinAnimalCenter.org to find the pet's profile and click that pet's pink “Adopt Me” button. This will prompt you to complete an adoption questionnaire. Submitting an application does not hold the animal for you.
We have dozens of animals that won't be listed online yet because they're still in their stray hold period, but can be pre-adopted at the shelter in case their owner doesn't come for them.
Adoption Fees:
$80 cats & kittens up to 6 years old
$80 dogs 6 months to 6 years, 30 lbs and up
$100 dogs under 30 lbs and/or under 6 months
$30 small animals
No fee for senior pets 7 years and older
