Story
This is our boy Nemo we got him October 2025. He was given to us at 6 weeks old for free because the owner couldn’t take care of the puppies. We’ve loved him so much but my child has extreme eczema. We just found out they are also allergic to dogs. we need to do everything to help her skin. we are sad to let him go :(ProsUp to date on all his shotsGood with other dogsGood with kidsNot food aggressiveVery playfulKnows sit and shakeThe only problem we’ve had with him is obsessive barking when someone new comes to our houseHe also runs away The vet said he will extremely benefit from training but that is not in our budgetWe just want someone to love our boy how we did and hopefully whoever adopts him can train him

Story
Meet Bella! 🐾❤️ Bella is a loving, caring girl with a big heart and a very loyal personality. She is incredibly protective of the people she loves and will always want to be close to her family. Bella absolutely loves tummy scratches and enjoys spending time around children. She can get very excited when kids are around, but once she settles down, she is gentle and sweet with them. Don’t let her sweet personality fool you—Bella is one strong and tough cookie! She isn’t afraid of fireworks and is definitely not easily scared. And if you really want to make her happy, give her some ice! 🧊 She LOVES, LOVES eating ice! Bella is a loyal, affectionate, playful girl who has so much love to give. She would make a wonderful companion for a family who will appreciate her big personality and give her the love and patience she deserves. ❤️🐶

Story
Some dogs wear their hearts on their sleeves, while others just need a little time. This sweet boy is still settling into shelter life and can be a bit shy, especially around the noise of barking dogs. When he's feeling unsure, he'll happily walk close behind his person, looking to them for reassurance.Once he's away from the kennel environment, his personality starts to shine. He enjoys leisurely walks, taking time to sniff and explore, and checks in with his handler often. He's housetrained, walks nicely on a loose leash, and politely ignores both people and other dogs while out and about.Toys aren't usually his thing—but hand him a shark stuffie and you'll see the cutest side of him! Watching him toss it into the air and catch it himself is guaranteed to make you smile. It's clear he's beginning to relax and come out of his shell a little more every day.This gentle, medium-energy boy would thrive with a patient adopter who will let him settle in at his own pace. Give him a little time, a quiet place to decompress, and maybe a shark toy of his own, and you'll get to watch his confidence grow into something truly special.

Hi, I'm new to Austin and am looking forward to meeting a foster or adopter to help show me around! My friends at APA might not know a ton about me just yet, but you could help them get valuable notes by offering to take me on a sleepover for a few days. Please stop by the shelter to meet me today or if my location says "Foster" click the Adoption Inquiry button to get connected to my foster!

Story
Charley is an easygoing, thoughtful girl who has settled beautifully into her foster home. After nearly a decade in one home, she’s taken this big life transition in stride; within minutes of walking into her current foster home, she was relaxing, following the household routine, and coexisting peacefully with resident dogs and cats. She enjoys being near her people, joining in on “pack” walks, and soaking up the simple comforts of home life. Charley is a friendly dog who seeks out connection, but she prefers a respectful, consent-based approach to touch. She’s shown that she’s most comfortable with gentle, predictable interactions and does best when her boundaries, especially around her neck and while eating, are honored. In her foster home, she’s been calm and easy to live with, including during mealtimes when given appropriate space. She is reliably house-trained with no accidents and walks nicely on leash, making her a smooth addition to a daily routine. Charley will thrive with an experienced, patient adopter who understands dog body language and is comfortable managing mild resource guarding and touch sensitivity. In return, she offers loyalty, companionship, and a genuinely sweet nature that shines when she feels safe and understood. She’s a great match for a quieter home without young children, where she can continue to relax and be appreciated for the wonderful dog she is.
