Story
Meet Frankincense, the epitome of a companion dog. His sweet and gentle nature makes him a joy to be around. He's incredibly friendly, always ready for a cuddle or a playful game of tug. Frankincense is also mellow and loyal, forming strong bonds with those who care for him. He enjoys leisurely walks and is easy to handle, loving every moment he gets to spend with people. His favorite activities include getting ear scratches and munching on treats. Frankincense is also sociable with other dogs (play bowing with his friends), making him a great addition to any family. Frankincense can be shy and cautious when meeting new people, but is not pushy and is good with kids. He is looking for a patient person who can provide a predictable environment where he can settle in at his own pace. He is the perfect match for someone who enjoys a quieter bond and the reward of earning a dog’s trust. Frankincense has a recent medical history involving seizures, but he has been stable since starting his medication. He would benefit from a home that can provide a consistent routine to help him feel secure as he adjusts. Having a dedicated caregiver to help him decompress in a calm space will make all the difference as he transitions into his new home. Adopt Frankincense and discover the true meaning of unconditional love and loyalty.

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.

Story
Hi, I'm Little Dude! I'm a year-old Golden Retriever/Lab mix and I recently had a sleepover with a foster family, and had the time of my life. 🎾 I met three resident dogs on my very first day and didn't miss a beat — no drama, just wagging tails. Turns out I really thrive with canine company, so a home with another dog (or a dog park bestie) would make me even happier. I'm already fully housebroken and slept through my first night in a crate without a peep — I know how to settle in and behave. During the day I keep myself busy with toys, and I'll happily fetch a ball and bring it right back for another throw. I've got medium-to-high energy, but don't worry — I chill out easily and I'm calm and relaxed once we're inside. A yard would be my dream come true, though, since I love to zip around and burn off steam outside. I'm looking for a family who'll toss the ball with me, maybe bring home a canine sibling, and give me a little yard space to run laps in. Think that could be you? Adoption fee includes spay/neuter, vaccinations, microchip, and lifetime behavior support from Austin Pets Alive!
