Hello, it's me, Jello! I'm a big, fluffy Siberian Husky with sparkly blue eyes waiting to meet you! I'm very friendly with people and other dogs. I'm lively and energetic and am hoping for a forever family that is active. I'm also housetrained and ready to learn whatever you'd like to teach me. Let's try the Foster-to-Adopt option where you can take me home for a few days to try things out before finishing the paperwork. Wouldn't that be fun? — Jello

I'm Patience and I'm a super smart, lovable puppy with a big personality and an even bigger heart! I already know "sit," and I'm fully housetrained. I'm learning a few basics and will benefit from some continued guidance. I'm eager to please and quick to pick up new training ideas, so that should be fun! I'm crate trained, and I love being involved in everything you do. I adore toys, take my meds like a pro, and absolutely love other dogs. I have a calm, cuddly side and will happily sit and watch TV with you.

I need a loving family who will be able to help me with my special medical needs. I have a heart condition that requires monitoring, but I'm full of love and joy and want to live life to the fullest! Come meet me today and I'll tell you more! — Patience

I'm Whiskey, a loving, intelligent guy who forms strong bonds with my people. I enjoy playing "Fetch", going for walks, chewing on my favorite bones, and spending time outdoors. I'm also happy to relax and cuddle with my trusted humans. I know several commands and I'm fully housetrained and crate trained. I'll be happiest in a home with no other pets and no young kids. If you are searching for an incredibly loyal and devoted companion, I'm your boy! Come meet me today and I'll tell you more! — Whiskey

Hi Ya'll! I'm Walter, a big boy with a lap dog's nature! I love to cuddle and enjoy my special time with people and other dogs. I like to run, play "Fetch" and especially swim! I'm housetrained, too. I've lived with other dogs, and I behave nicely when meeting new friends. I'll need a home with lots of room for me. Sound like something we could try? — Walter

Puppies, puppies, puppies! There are lots of us and we are all different colors. We are all typical bundles of joy and fun. When we are all grown up, we will be large adult dogs so we will all need homes with space for playtime and exercise. Come watch us tumble around with each other and our toys and get your chuckle for the day. Be ready to fall in love and have difficulty deciding which one of us to take home! I hope it's me! — Tweety Bird

Wanna play? I'm Apollo, and I want to be your favorite playtime puppy! I'm already a pretty big boy and will likely be a large adult when I'm fully grown. I'll need a home with room for me! I'm a big furball right now in need a loving family to help me blossom into the greatest pet ever. Let's meet soon! — Apollo

Bruno is my name, what's yours? I'm a fun pup with a gorgeous brindle and white coat all dressed up to meet you. I'm growing up fast and learning new things every day. I'm at a great age for training and eager for your guidance. I'm an expert at cuddling and will bring lots of joy to your household. Run on over and check it out! — Bruno

It's me, Copper, a handsome fellow if I do say so myself! I have a very sweet nature and am calm and relaxed while hanging out at home. I'd make a great companion because I'm extremely loyal and love to interact with my people. I'm a medium size so space isn't a problem. I'll do best in a home with access to a yard and has no other pets. Because I probably have a lot of Hound in my breed mix, I have a naturally loud bark so apartment living might not be a good idea. I'm hoping for a special kind of family who will give me a chance to show off my great doggie features. I qualify for the Foster-to-Adopt option where you can take me home for a few days before making a final decision. Wouldn't that be fun? Come see me today and let's set it up! — Copper

This 6-year-old terrier mix has already proven he's one tough cookie. After surviving a car accident and a full hip surgery recovery, Tobi hasn't let life's hard knocks dim his spirit one bit. These days, you're more likely to find him cuddled up in your lap than worrying about the past. Tobi is a bonafide snuggler who forms deep, loyal bonds with the people who show him kindness – and once he's decided you're his person, consider yourself chosen for life. He does like to take things at his own pace when meeting new faces, but a little patience and a tasty treat go a long way, and he tends to warm up faster than you'd expect.

Tobi is looking for a calm, loving home where he can truly shine. He'd thrive as the solo dog – or alongside a well-matched small canine companion – and he's shown he can coexist peacefully with cats, approaching them with curiosity but never pushiness (three feline roommates can vouch for him). He's a fan of squeaky toys, car rides with the window down, and hanging out with older kids who match his gentle energy. He comes neutered and fully up to date on his vaccinations, so all he's really missing is a couch to call his own. Could that be yours?

I'm visiting some volunteer friends so I'm not at the shelter but meeting me is simple. Just send an email to fostercare@austinhumanesociety,org and they'll set it up! — Tobi
