My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Simon’s mother was found in a rural area we help and she was clearly pregnant. She was picked up by animal control and taken to a shelter. The shelters we help are all outdoors and it was very cold. We knew her puppies wouldn’t survive if she gave birth in the shelter. Thankfully, an awesome foster agreed to take the mama into her home so she and her puppies would be safe.

Now, Simon and his siblings are 7 weeks old and they’re ready to find families of their own. They have been raised with their mama and caring people, so they’re happy healthy pups.

Simon has been with cats, adult dogs, children and even farm animals as she’s grown. He is playful, crate trained and is learning to potty outside.

His mama weighs 33 pounds so we think he’ll be medium sized when he is full grown. His mama is a Cattle dog mix, but we don’t know anything about the daddy dog. Simon has been vaccinated twice for DHPP, bordetella vaccinated, microchipped and is current on flea/tick and heart worm prevention.

He will arrive in the PNW on 2/19. If you are interested in adopting, please fill out the application found here: https://throwadogabone.org/adopt

More about this rescue

Throw a Dog a Bone is an all-breed dog rescue located in Austin, TX. Although Austin is a no kill city, hundreds of shelters throughout the state are not. Sadly, many shelters in Texas are euthanizing healthy adoptable dogs, sometimes even puppies. Our mission is to rescue as many of these dogs as possible and find them loving forever homes.

There are currently no additional pets at this rescue. Please check back later!
