My StoryI am a gentleman who loves to go out on a walk, but I don�t need to get anywhere too quickly. I love to have a good time and play, but I�m ok with just hanging out if that�s more of your thing. I have been at my current place for about 6 months now and I�m really looking for a change of scenery. I know a couple of commands in Korean and I am very good at �sit�. How many dogs do you know that are bilingual? Also, have you seen my eyebrows? Handsome huh?My Perfect MatchMy last relationship ended after 5 years so I am really looking for somewhere to call home again. A dog bed, a couple of toys and someone to show off my amazing qualities to would be ideal. Also, if you are up for it, I really enjoy a good back/butt scratch.My Ideal DateI�m a pretty laid back guy so I would love a quiet stroll through the national park while we enjoy the company of one another. We could keep it low key and go back home to watch the game and relax with a cold one afterwards, or we could stay out and see the sights and picnic. I will also say that ending the date with a few kisses is probably a given.Send me a message if you�d like to share your home with me. Of course I�m up for a long-term place to call home, but if a short-term foster commitment is more your thing I can be flexible.***Want to learn more about this sweet boy?

Hello all! My name is Bella and I have a few things to tell ya. Lots have people have told me I`m a good girl and have used words like cute, beautiful, cuddly, calm, funny, sweet and easy (going) to describe me. People say I`m a sweet old girl who wants to snuggle and be loved on. I`m slow-paced, generally calm, and happy to lie around on soft things near good humans. I`m good at letting you know when I have to go potty, and I don`t mind being in a crate and am easy to walk on a leash. You should adopt me if you`re looking for a laid back companion dog that generally only barks when I need to let you know someone is at the house, and is confident and independent in themselves to be content just chilling (but won`t turn down a good snuggle session either). If you want to meet me, visit the shelter or email ClassicCaninesATX@yahoo.com to learn more! show less

Birdie is one of our favorite dogs! Just read what all her volunteer fans have to say about her!`LOVE this girl!! Birdie just makes me laugh, especially when she`s so anxious for a belly rub she hardly lets me leash her up!! Birdie is very affectionate and a joy to walk. She takes treats gently and is so happy to be with me every time I see her. She loves the play yard, although much of the time she just wants to snuggle and get her belly rubbed! A sweetheart!!``During her ride to Fox News, Birdie was calm in the car. On set, Birdie politely greeted the anchor and producer, and sat quietly on the couch next to me during her segment. She was very treat motivated and offered her belly for rubs. Here is a link to her well-mannered Pet of the Week spot: http://www.fox7austin.com/good-day/302239460-video ``Birdie went on a group hike to McKinney Falls and was a perfect walking companion. She needed help loading into my car and did some whining on the drive but rode nicely. At the park she was friendly to all people and non-reactive to all the dogs on the walk (8 dogs total). We kept a distance between dogs, but she never pulled, barked or was bothered by nearby dogs. She thoroughly enjoyed the walk in nature and was truly an absolute pleasure to be with on our outing.`Here are some lovely words that people have used to describe our beautiful Birdie!- Happy- Friendly- Affectionate- Playful- Fun- Fabulous! show less

Brenda is a fun-loving eight year old looking for a couch (and a family) to call her own. She enjoys a daily walk with plenty of breaks to stop and smell the flowers and afterward enjoys a nap in the sun or on the couch with a cozy blanket (depending on the season). Brenda has excellent manners on leash and in the house and enjoys a game of fetch or tug every now and then to keep life interesting! Brenda would prefer to have your love to herself and would do best in a home without other pets or very small kids.

Brian is a diamond in the rough. He loves to play with toys and chase anything you want to throw for him. He gets totally blissed out when you touch his head and lives for affection. He is like a little shadow and follows you all over the house and wants nothing more than to be in the company of people. He is content to sit for hours on the floor next to the couch while you watch TV. Brian lives to please and I think will be terrifically motivated with training. He also has a VERY strong desire to sniff out scents and would be a great candidate for nosework training. Brian currently lives with a doggy sister and a cat brother! This adorable boy is ready to find his forever home! Reach out to his foster momma at gjohnson@germer-austin.com or 512-917-1110 show less

Bruno arrived at the shelter after being found on the side of the road, in a wire crate, in the middle of the summer. Understandably, he was very scared and non-trusting of humans.Fast forward a few months, and Bruno has come such a long way! With time, patience, and LOTS of treats, Bruno is learning to trust people. He is slowly but surely coming out of his shell, and is having tons of fun just getting to be a dog!Bruno needs a calm, patient owner who understands that the first few years of his life probably weren�t the best. He needs someone to continue to build his trust in humans, to teach him what it�s like to live in a home, to feel safe, and to love him for the big ole goofball that he is!Bruno would do best in a low-traffic household. At this time, he needs to decompress in a home with no other pets and no small children. So if you are in the market for a big ole meatball who loves to go on walks and then snuggle up on the couch for some Netflix, please reach out to us at orangedotcrew@gmail.com.Bruno has also been accepted into a two week board and train program but he needs a foster/adopter lined up first so he doesn�t come back to the shelter and lose his new skills. He will also go home with a harness, additional training voucher, and all the support and guidance you need from his friends in the Orange Dot Crew!

Poor Buddy... his owner died and no one in the family could take him, so he`s stuck at the shelter and honestly he`s falling apart. He is VERY potty trained. He is totally out of sorts at the shelter, partially because he is so potty trained that he tries to hold it as long as possible, and he sometimes has to wait a very long time in between walks. Once he is out of his kennel away from the other barking dogs, he walks lovely and politely. He takes treats nicely, but doesn`t seem to know any commands or tricks. He can be nervous around strangers, but is happy to make friends who offer him treats! Email us if you`d like to know more about fostering Buddy A779100, animal.foster@ausintexas.gov. Buddy is supported by the Orange Dot Volunteers in the shelter. If you`d like to come meet him, email them to set up a time to get introduced: orangedotcrew@gmail.com show less

Meet charming Chacho! Chacho is not only handsome and unique, he`s well-behaved and so fun to be with. He`s the full package! Chacho is in a foster home where he has demonstrated that he is housebroken, is great with other dogs, behaves in the house and has not needed to be crated when left alone or at night, knows some tricks and walks well on a leash. Chacho can be very playful - chasing the ball, throwing his toys in the air, doing `zoomies` in the yard, or bouncing with excitement before a walk - but quickly settles down and is calm and relaxed when it`s time to hang out and take it easy. We estimate that Chacho is 7 years old and, while 100% unique, he may be part Plott Hound.Want to learn more and maybe meet Chacho in real life?

A letter from Daisy`s foster mom:`Daisy is by far my favorite foster ever. I cannot keep her, but I hope to find her a fantastic home where she can live out her days happily and loved.Daisy loves people and seeks affection from anyone she meets. Daisy likes to lean against her people or sit down on their feet to make sure that they�re as close as possible. Daisy also likes to bury her head against her people to feel completely submerged in their affection. Daisy also has a very enthusiastic wag, it takes over her entire body and she seems a bit befuddled as to why she can�t walk straight. Daisy is generally a low energy dog but she enjoys a bit of energetic play time each morning and evening. She loves her rope toys and will play with them by herself (tossing, shaking, and chewing) or with her people (playing tug). She also enjoys chewing on tennis balls. For treats, Daisy�s most favorite treat is the bully stick, but she�s treat motivated and is willing to try anything once (and most things more often).Daisy rarely barks but will alert bark if a stranger comes on the property. When she�s just hanging around the house, Daisy has a lot to say, she has a wide variety of grunts, grumbles, guffaws and other quiet vocalizations that she uses to talk to her people.Daisy has good house manners and is fully house trained. She�s also crate trained, enjoys napping in her crate often during the day, and is trustworthy when left alone uncrated.Daisy has lived with another dog in the past, but she�s selective about her dog friends so a meet and greet is recommended. She�s a Classic Canine so she comes with lots of extra love and support. Daisy is suitable for particularly big-hearted adopters who can look past the physical imperfections that make her look like she fell out of the bottom of the ding and dent bin. On the inside, she�s a beautiful dog. On the outside, she�s missing half an ear, has kinked tail, and a loose undercarriage from nursing many puppies. Any adopter who can look past that will see that Daisy is a gem.`If you want to meet Daisy and learn more, email caring@classiccanines.org show less

Davey is the best of everything! He is friendly, playful, confident, affectionate, quiet, and silly. In the home he loved to lay right next to you on the couch or in bed. He loves to take naps! Outside, Davey is more independent and loves toys and tennis balls (his favorite)! He will find a spot in the yard and roll around in the grass and then bask in the sun. Davey went on a sleepover with one of his favorite volunteers, and they said `Davey was so much fun! I gave him a bath in the front yard and he did great! He received a massage from someone who is licensed and fell asleep during it. If he sleeps with his person, he will stay in bed until they decide it�s time to get up. Davey gives sweet, gentle kisses. Everyone who met him fell in love...as did I. Davey is easy to please and is eager to do the same.`Want to learn more about Davey?

Heddy is a bit of a tough nut to crack since she`s still figuring out how she feels about humans and is mostly very shy and wary, but she shows a ton of promise as a very caring and gentle addition to a family. She`s not at all aggressive and is obviously a very gentle animal. She loves playing with her canine friends and it`s enjoyable to see her getting so much out of their wrestling matches. She very much seems to want to be able to love and interact with her human family but just hasn`t finished figuring out how to do that and to establish her full confidence level in that role. If given a lot of patience, care, and a calm environment, she will definitely continue to blossom over time into a heart warming addition to a family that loves her. She also has an adorable tail that curls up and around into a complete circle when she is feeling confident. And she doesn`t mind living with cats! She`d love to live with a family that already has dogs so that she can continue her journey to loving and trusting us human creatures!Reach out to her foster parents to learn more about Heddy, at looklita@gmail.com show less

Husker Du is a sweet and sensitive boy. He loves having dog friends, and he likes people that are calm and let him get used to them at his own pace. Once you`re in the inner circle, he LOVES to get pets and sit next to you on the couch. He also makes a great running buddy and has great leash manners! While he needs time to warm up to strangers (especially men), he is a smart boy and a quick learner! He stays at home by himself and doesn`t get into stuff he`s not supposed to. Husker Du is being championed by our staff Behavior Team member Sarah, and she is going to help Husker`s foster or adopter develop a simple training plan for introducing him to new people. His ideal foster or adoptive home is low-key, not super busy with kids and people coming and going, and probably has another dog friend for him to hang out with!

Sweet Layla. This girl hasn�t had the best of luck, and we�d love for that to change for her. Layla was adopted back in May, and then returned in November because the adopter �did not have time for her.� Layla has excellent playgroup notes. She does indeed have lots of energy so an active family with another equally playful dog would be ideal. Layla is both smart and super treat motivated so training her will be a breeze if someone is willing to put in the time. As an Orange Dot dog, she goes home with the support of the Orange Dot Crew, as well as a harness and a training voucher.

Lola is such a smart, gentle dog. She hangs out entertaining herself by scanning her yard or playing with her toys. She checks in regularly to see that you are ok and to get some butt scratches. Knowing a good thing, Lola accepts pets from anyone.Lola knows all the commands and has learned a few more in a just a short time. Her talents include sit, down, shake, off, out, drop it, and bring it. Lola make a great walking partner, wanting to keep her nice figure. Making that long run to fetch a toy is her favorite warmup game. Want a couch partner? Lola is your girl! She will snuggle or just hang at the other end. Napping is another hobby. Lola is a beautiful all around dog. show less

People are Mamas` favorite. She wants to always be nearest them if she can and her favorite pastime is napping at her owner`s feet. Mamas enjoys long walks and even occasional jogs. When she visits a dog-friendly restaurant or bar, she will likely position herself in the best spot to meet the most people. She has even been known to walk up to perfect strangers at other tables to nap at their feet. Mamas has never met a person she didn`t like and the kids on her street know her by name because she is so gentle, warm, and loving towards them (gives lots of kisses). She has even done well at the office, too! She has never had an accident inside the home and she asks for permission before joining you on the bed or couch. She doesn`t bark much and doesn`t have an overwhelming presence (jumping on people, getting rowdy when guests enter the home). That`s not to say she doesn`t have a warm welcome when her owner walks in the door. She does laps around the house when her caretaker arrives home after a day of work to show her excitement that you have finally made it home. Overall, Mamas is a wonderful companion and would be the perfect touch to a home that is missing a little extra love and personality! It remains a mystery as to why someone hasn`t adopted her yet! If you want to learn more, email us to get in contact with her foster mom!Mamas was a star on the news! show less

Marley has been living the good life in a foster home, and here`s what they have to say about her:`Marley is a nanny dog! She`s perfect with kids. She likes to snuggle and be near people. Marley is so laid back. She wants to be in a family. She is kind of stubborn, which I respect about her. But, she also has great manners in the family.

Sweet Merlin is a previous longstay. He`s also a senior who has possible heart murmur and the shelter is not a great place for him right now. He is skin and bones, and all the food isn`t helping him put on weight. He NEEDS to get out into a foster. We know Merlin is potty-trained, loves people and doesn`t jump when meeting them, and he LOVES to be outside and roll in the grass. Do you have a quiet corner and a yard for Merlin to explore? show less

My foster mom says I`m a sweet sweet boy! I do well with my (dog) foster brother, but I`m still settling and getting used to him and this new, comfy house. It`s just a matter of time that I will get a little more spring to my step! They say I am something called `housetrained` and I love a sneaky nap on the sofa when my foster people are out. I`m pretty quiet--yet to make a bark and I mainly just want to stay close to the people in the house. And I LOVE spending time in the backyard, sniffing all of the things and doing a little sunbathing. If you`re looking for a small-medium sweetie pie, Mr Pickles is your man!

Sweet senior Penelope was brought to the shelter after her owners moved to a new place that didn`t allow her because she looks a certain way. She lived with 2 kids and another dog. She was potty-trained, stayed in a crate, and knew all the tricks (Sit, Stay, Down, Come, Heel). Many months later, and she has been sitting at the shelter waiting for an angel. She has great leash manners and isn`t reactive to other dogs on walks. She also rides great in the car! She recently go to go on a sleepover and got GREAT marks! She did zoomies when she got to the house and explored all the things. Seems house trained, no accidents at all. All she asked for were for some belly rubs. She snoozed on the couch while the humans watched TV. Penelope does this grunt thing which is pretty adorable. She was seriously so easy. Even though she isn�t a huge fan of other dogs at the shelter, Penelope is easily managed and would make the perfect addition to a family. She just wants love and will give it in return. Penelope is available for foster or adoption! show less

Percival is looking for his forever home! Here`s what his foster family has to say about him:`Percival is the sweetest and most handsome, 65lb (maybe more) lap-dog you would ever meet. He is super affectionate and has to be touching you at all time, and that doesn`t always mean petted. He will just sit AS CLOSE AS POSSIBLE to you on the couch. That is his happy place. We are learning that he loves to play fetch and tug-of-war and has the back legs of a Kangaroo. He can jump SO HIGH although he is not all that graceful. Lol. He is a little talkative in the mornings when we all first wake up together, asking when breakfast will be ready. He has NEVER had an accident in the house while with us. He always lets you know that he needs to go outside.Percy loves car rides! This is when you really get to see pure joy in is face. He will stick his head out the winder, big flappy lips flailing in the wind and the BIGGEST smile on his face. When we pull up to another car on the road, you can see bright smiles on those passengers faces when they catch a glimpse of Percy catching wind.Percival is a wonderful pup with the biggest heart. It has been an absolute pleasure having him over these last few months.`If you want to meet his handsome gentlemen and see for yourself how amazing he is, you can reach out to his foster mom Amanda at duhgeorge@yahoo.com or text/call at 817-770-2458 show less
