My story

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

Meet Estrella, a beautiful German Shepherd with a bright spirit to match her name. This smart, active girl loves nothing more than a good game of fetch and is always ready to show off her playful side.

Estrella enjoys staying engaged, whether that’s chasing a ball, exploring her surroundings, or spending time with people who appreciate her loyal and affectionate nature. She also gets along well with other dogs, making her a great candidate for a home with a canine companion.

Estrella recently went on an outing to Mueller and did wonderfully, showing off her good manners and adaptability in a new environment. She handled the adventure like a pro, taking in the sights and sounds while staying calm and confident. Estrella would thrive in a home that can give her regular exercise, enrichment, and plenty of love. If you’re looking for a fun, friendly, and devoted companion, Estrella may be the perfect match.

Additional adoption info

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 up to 6 years old
$80 dogs 6 months to 6 years, 30 lbs and up
$100 kittens up to 6 months
$120 dogs under 30 lbs and/or under 6 months
No fee for senior pets 7 years and older
