Like your guy to be chiseled, handsome, wise and oh so sweetly soft? Meet Cooper, he`s the whole package. He`ll gently put his paws in your lap to ask for some snuggles. He really shines with people and can share space and play with a canine friend too.
He loves leisurely daily walks if that`s in the cards, and doesn`t even pay attention to occasional squirrels and cats. His energy is between low and medium - of course he`s a solid believer in beauty naps. When he has extra energy in the house, he’ll grab a toy or a chew and tackle it. He`s trusted loose at home alone, is non-destructive and is very house trained. He’s shown solid skills with older children in his foster home.
Does he sound like just the right fit you`re looking for? Hurry to meet him onsite when in the shelter (check location on his link) or when in foster, use the ADOPT ME button to start a conversation with his foster provider. He`s advocated for by his many friends and fans including ClassicCaninesATX who help make land bridges out of the shelter for displaced mature shelter dogs. Know that your fostering or adopting a shelter animal is vital to Austin`s no kill mission. Don`t delay another day when a shelter dog is waiting to resume their life.

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
