Atlas’s foster to adopt home is still going well! Keep sending this big boy and his party ear good luck vibes.🤞

Swipe to see all the ingredients to a happy Delta! 🥰

Also not shown is Delta loves to play with her foster dog brothers. Yes, Delta CAN live with other dogs! Delta has some separation anxiety and having another dog around not only gives her a play mate but has helped keep her company. If you’re looking to add another dog to your pack, Delta is taking forever home applications!

She is available for adoption at Austin Pets Alive!. If interested, Delta’s bio/application is below or you can email [email protected].

Since Pumbaa has run off into the sunset with my heart - Welcome to The Long Stay Project Pumbaa! 🥹

Pumbaa is a 5 year old true gentleman. He’s so gentle, walks with a loose leash, knows sit and wait, is house trained, is super cuddly, and loves to play with stuffies. And he could live with a well matched dog!

He has been at since 6/2023. If you can’t adopt, please consider giving him a foster break. His shelter isn’t climate controlled and temps are starting to drop. While he looks phenomenal in his green puffer jacket, he’d love a cozy couch to cuddle on.

Please email [email protected] or head to Austin Pets Alive to learn more/meet Pumbaa!

If you’re interested in learning more about what Delta’s ideal home life would look like, please email [email protected]. Delta is available for adoption through - Austin, TX

While Oatmeal is doing great in foster, she is still searching for her forever home! 🩷

If you don’t know a darn thing about wheelie dogs, that’s okay - Austin Pets Alive! and Oatmeal’s friends can teach you and support you along the learning experience! Oatmeal is incredibly tolerant about being put in her wheels. She’s an independent woman and even helps get herself out of them.

If you’re interested in a super sweet family dog that is dog AND kid friendly, please consider Oatmeal. You can email [email protected] to get more details or set up a meet and greet!

Okay, newest obsession at Austin Pets Alive … PUMBAA. He’s such a sweet gentle boy, rocks a puffer vest like it’s his job, and walks great on a leash. He has stolen my heart and ran into the sunset with it.

AND THEN, I recently discovered he’s been in the shelter for 1.5 years. 🥺 First of all - THE AUDACITY of y’all for snoozin on this dog. Secondly, does Pumbaa need to be added to The Long Stay Project?

All in favor, comment below.
All opposed..well, you’re rude (unless you’re currently en route to adopt or foster him 😁)

If you’re interested in learning more about Pumbaa, email [email protected]. 💙

GivingTuesday is today so you’ll likely see tons of fundraisers for nonprofits flooding your pages. If you can donate to them, great! But I also want to bring everyone back down to home base to remind you that you don’t need to financially contribute to make a difference today..or any day.

The actual Giving Tuesday website says “Whether it’s making someone smile, helping a neighbor out, or showing up for an issue or people we care about, we each have something to contribute. ”

If you can’t contribute financially, it’s okay! I think I speak for most that this economy is brutal and many people are struggling just to get by. So, today, I ask that on this Giving Tuesday that you give yourself some grace and if you have the extra energy..share an adoptable dog post. 💕🐾

Mr. Brown's Pet Stop in Lockhart, TX is doing the long stay dog giving tree again this year! 🎄🐾 Last year so many people bought my favorite long stay babies presents and it made me so happy watching them be showered in gifts. Of course the ultimate gift to them is a forever home, but many of us aren’t in a place to add another dog to the home so this is a perfect opportunity to give them some special during the holidays. 🎁

These ornaments of dogs and their wishlists will be displayed on Mr Brown’s tree for a few weeks in December. You can stop in to buy something on their wishlist and I’ll personally deliver them to each dog!

If you’re not in Lockhart but still want to contribute, you can text or email Mr Browns to purchase a gift card and I’ll pick them out something special!

Austin Pets Alive! does an annual “Santa Paws” where they match a volunteer with a dog that needs some extra love and attention this holiday season.

Welllll, I got my match and it couldn’t be anymore perfect. Guys..she’s a freaking PITTIE IN WHEELS with the best ears ever! Seriously, she’s 110% my kind of dog.

🎅🐾 Meet Streetcar Stella! 🎅🐾

She’s a 6 year little lady (about 45 lbs) who would love to be in a home this Christmas! She came to APA in October after being hit by a car which unfortunately left her paralyzed. Throughout her treatment, she has remained very friendly and tolerant of handling. She LOVES people and has the sweetest demeanor. She could also live with a well matched dog sibling.

Don’t know anything about wheelie dogs? That’s okay! APA will teach you everything you need to know. You can also test out the wheelie dog life without commitment by fostering!

She is looking for an adopter or foster at Austin Pets Alive. For more information on Streetcar Stella, please email [email protected].

Atlas went to his foster to adopt home so wish him luck! My fingers are crossed so hard they’re about to break. He’s waited over a year for a home and has been through a lot these past few months. I hope this is it for you big boy! You deserve it so much. 💙

Welcome to The Long Stay Project Nectarine! 🍑

I’m really hoping I can help break this girl out of the shelter ASAP. She’s been waiting for almost 𝙏𝙃𝙍𝙀𝙀 𝙔𝙀𝘼𝙍𝙎 and has one of the most gut wrenching stories I’ve heard. 🥺

Nectarine originally entered the shelter system after experiencing trauma of a sensitive nature at the hands of some very cruel people. Despite that, she loves people and generally only needs a few minutes of slow intros and kindness to decide that new people are okay. After that she’s exuberant and always excited to see her friends! She has some long term medical needs as a result of her trauma that are well managed with medication. Her previous fosters have reported that she is house and crate trained, does well home alone and has done well with their family and friends who are frequent visitors.

She can live in a home with older kiddos but would do best as the only dog. However, if juuust the right dog came along, it could potentially work. She’s just a pickier little lady with dog friends.

If you’re interested in adopting or fostering Nectarine, please email [email protected].

I love this sweet baby and the relationship we’ve built so much.🥺🩷 Delta hasn’t been treated the best by humans in the past. But yet, she still has soooo much love to give.

She’s been waiting 1,022 days for a forever home. It’s mind boggling to me that a dog that’s dog friendly has waited this long. Heck, she prefers dogs to play with and keep her company! 🐕

If you’re looking to add a dog to your pack, Delta would love to end her 1,000 days+ wait and join your family! 🩷 If interested, please email [email protected].

This was my view 24 hours ago. 🥺 Atlas and I had a sleepover and this is what I opened my eyes to. This dog might look big and scary to some but he has the biggest heart and is the best cuddler despite everything he’s been through. He’s been a stray left to fend for himself. He’s been on a euthanasia list at a kill shelter (for space and having heartworms) prior to Dogslanding saving him. He’s been on heartworm treatment which restricts his love for big boy activities. He’s been recently adopted and recently returned (no fault of his own) with some battle scars. You can tell he’s worn out from everything since his return. He just wants to be loved and have a family to love back. He’s loyal, playful, cuddly, and such a goober. He’s also crate trained, house trained, and obedience trained. He was WONDERFUL at our sleepover, as expected. If you’re interested in adopting or fostering Atlas, please contact @thedogslandinghouse directly. He can live with well matched dogs and kiddos! 📧 [email protected] 📍Cedar Creek, TX #austin #atx #austintx #rescuedog #reels #dogreels #adoptdontshop #adorable #adopt #dogsofinstagram #rescuedogsofinstagram #gentlegiant #sweetdog #dog #rescuedismyfavoritebreed #bestfriend #sleepover #cuddles #dogcuddles #doglove

Adoptable Atlas came to cheer on his powerlifter friend, Derek, today during the deadlift party/fundraiser at Home Barbell Club! Get you a dog who shows up for your events, who gives you good luck kisses, who cheers you on like a proud dad on the sidelines, and who makes sure everyone’s watching you do your thing..GET. YOU. AN. ATLAS! He has been waiting for a home for over a year now and he’s soooo ready for a forever family. He can live with kids and well matched dogs! He’s also crate, house, and basic obedience trained. If you’re interested in learning more about Atlas, contact @thedogslandinghouse directly. 📧 rescue@dogs andingco.com Derek became friends with Atlas when he started volunteering at The Dogslanding House. Here’s your sign to go volunteer there! 😉 A HUGE thank you to @homebarbellatx and @hodorthebearded for putting on such a badass event today that benefited dogs! 🖤 🏋️‍♂️🐾 #atx #powerlifting #strongman #weightlift #deadlift #powerlifter #weights #bodybuilding #gym #adopt #strong #honda #fitness #muscle #workout #powerlift #bodybuilder #austintx #rescuedog #adoptdontshop #gymlife #barbell #adoptable #dogsofinstagram #thedodo #bigdog

The other night I gave Oatmeal fresh blankets and tucked her in before I left the shelter. Her reaction was the CUUUTEST! With her being paralyzed, having a few blankets on the kennel floor helps give some cushion. And she loves when she gets fresh ones. Annnd now apparently loves to get tucked in. 😂 While she is incontinent and paralyzed, she gets around pretty well in her wheels or by scooting and her care isn’t as hard as you may think! Don’t let her conditions deter you. She has an incredibly sweet demeanor as well and could even live with kiddos. If you’re interested in learning more about Oatmeal and her care, please email [email protected] or go to https://www.austinpetsalive.org/adopt/dogs/apa-a-130806. 📍@austinpetsalive - Austin, TX *yes, I fixed the blankets after this video so they laid flat and she could scoot around #austintexas #atx #austintx #wheeliedog #rescuedog #adoptdontshop #dogsofinstagram #disableddog #doglove #animalshelter #shepherdmix #disability #thedodo #rescuedogsofinstagram #adoptable #adopt #fosteringsaveslives
