My story

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

Antonio has all of the good home manners you would expect for a dog that knows his way in the world - he`s house trained - crate trained - stays home alone well - he`s lived with other dogs very well - and he`s a people snuggler. And he wears the latest doggy fashions and color SO very well, always with his signature smile. He adores games of fetch and tossing and collecting tennis balls better than any juggler. He loves agility too. He`ll appreciate at least a small yard space or outdoor excursions for walks and his `juggling` craft. He also loves car rides, swimming and his foster describes him as loving, tolerant, patient and predictable. Antonio has also been a helper dog too for new volunteer training-he`s doing his part!

Are you ready to meet this versatile and very good boy? Reach out on his ADOPT ME link to start a conversation with his foster provider and plan a meet up, it doesn`t obligate you at all. Meet ups are easy.

Check out his very own IG account adventurous_antonio Antonio is advocated for by his many fans and friends and especially Classic Canines who are helping make land bridges home for mature sweet puppers like Antonio!

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

Go meet their pets

The Austin Animal Center is open for adoptions every day from 11:00am to 7:00pm. We're closed Christmas Day, New Year's Day and Thanksgiving Day to give our staff some time with family.
Interested adopters should come to the shelter during business hours to meet with a counselor start looking for a pet who'll be a good fit. Our counselors and volunteers are happy to help with that process.
