Our Ta**us Academy crew joined Austin Animal Center for a Volunteer Spa and Enrichment Day this last Saturday! We were able to get over 20 dogs nails trimmed, gave some much needed baths and one extra special pup got a desperate hair cut and feeling like a new boy. Many also got to have a shaded stroll for some fresh air and exercise and of course some extra lovins.

All our sites are collecting donations, and we hope you will consider dropping off any of the much needed items to take on our next visit. We hope you will please consider adopting your next pup that is waiting for their forever home! Thank you!

Donations Needed: Pet Safe Easy Walk Harnesses, Freedom Harnesses, Nylabones and Kongs, towels, fleece blankets, treats, indestructible toys, pill pockets and anything else that could enrich our shelter pups lives. (please no open food, rope toys, or rawhide's for healthy reasons)

When dogs are outside, there are SO many distractions that they often have trouble focusing for leash walking. Sometimes it's a matter of finding the right reinforcement that will motivate them. If your dog isn't interested in the treats you are using, try spreading peanut butter on a long spoon, and using that as a reward. It can be used as a guide to show a dog how to walk at your side, and the spoon can be raised and lowered again as needed to reward a dog for making eye contact. Contact us today to talk to a trainer!

Did you know that more pets get lost on July 4th than any other day of the year? Here's how you can help me feel safe and calm at home this 4th of July:

🏡Offer lots of cuddles and reassurance
🎶Drown out those scary noises with some soothing music or the comforting hum of the TV
🦮Tire me out with an extra long walk before the fireworks begin
🐾Create a safe space for me in one of my favorite parts of the house

Oh, and a few extra treats and toys wouldn't hurt either, right? Let's make this holiday a little less stressful, together.

Meet Carlo!
A little about Carlo: Carlo is confident and loves to play but also loves to snuggle and be in a lap as often as he can. He plays well with his foster siblings and loves to do zoomies. He’s very affectionate and loves to be with people and dogs and kids. He’s starting to understand that he should go potty outside. He’s got such a cute personality and will make an amazing family member to a lucky family.

Apply today to adopt Carlo! 💕💕🙌🏼
