Great day at Farmers Market, and one of the biggest highlights was the appearance of Frack.

Frack is a medical foster, and while he still needs medical assistance, he showed up looking dapper and much healthier! It was exciting for everyone!

Frack needs an adopter or new foster by mid-July, so if you're interested, then lets get together and get this boy into a loving home ASAP!

🐾💗Meet Macho💗🐾

He is SOOO HANDSOME 😍😍

We have been fostering Macho for almost 3 weeks now and he is QUITE the OPPOSITE of the Macho Man (Randy Savage) I remember as a kid 😜🤣
“Madness & Mayhem” is FURTHEST from THIS boy’s lips. Macho is happy, gentle, quiet & polite😍

Macho is a 6yo neutered, 36lb, brindle & white, pit bull mix. He is up to date on shots and super DUPER friendly. 💗

Macho was very nervous on leash when he first arrived. But daily outings have helped a TON. I think another week or two and he will have it down. You just have to get him moving then he gets busy sniffing and forgets about that big, scary leash 😉 (Even our 8yo son has walked him.)

While in our care he has not been up close and personal with cats or other dogs. He does stay in the so is surrounded by doggies and kitties but even if they are making a ruckus, Macho is NOT! 🤫

Macho uses the doggie door like a champ and keeps his kennel clean 😉
Please reach out to us or Humane Society of Central Texas directly as we’d love to find this sweet boy a home 💕

We want to give a BIG shout out to the Street Dog Cafe for featuring one of the shelter's longer residents, Tails!

Tails could use a foster or forever home today! This sweetheart is dog friendly, loves his people, crate trained, and potty trained! Seriously, could it get any better?

Even if it couldn't it does! Tails is one of the sweetest boys on the planet, and he's super adorable! This boy is perfection on four legs!

As always, the shelter could use some help emptying kennels to save lives, and Tails may just be who you're looking for! Head over to 2032 Circle Road and meet this guy!

Hey Kitty lovers!

Are you looking for the typical rambunctious fly-by-the-seat-of-his-pants kitten? Ok, well, that’s not One-eyed Jack, known as Jack or O-E-J.

While he certainly does his fair share of running amok in play, you’re more likely to find him stretched out on the couch or curled up in a blanket.

He came into care with a bad respiratory infection so the tissue surrounding one of his eyes is still puffy. His vet says he’s healthy now, but the eye difference is most likely permanent. No worries as he can do all things cat, especially welcome furever with you. Contact HSCTx today and they can put you in touch with his foster!

This cutie is sweet Willie and he's in foster care searching for a forever home!

Here's what his lovin foster had to say!

Meet Willie!! He’s our 30 lb foster dog who is looking for a new home. Willie was owner surrendered by a crying mom who couldn’t bring him along due to housing.

Saving him opens up a spot in our house to continue taking in dogs from the humane society and getting them fit for a new home and NOT euthanized!!!

He sits. He is amazing with kids and sleeps in their rooms. Great on a leash and just needs a yard and someone to play with (kids, other dogs or fetch with Grandpa, he just wants love).

He has some energy, but can be kenneled when needed and knows how to “read the room” when it’s time to settle down. Gets along with dogs (from 6 lbs to 100, we tested) and cats. He comes when calls and would make a great forever addition.
His eyes are half blue, half brown, so he looks a little silly but he IS silly (think the dog on Coco, haha). At only 30 lbs, he is a light weight fun dog that can car ride with the best of them.

Call to meet him!!! 254-754-1454

We want to thank our partner Best Fido Friends LLC for fostering the precious, Goblin! (A108996)

Goblin has been in the shelter system for a while - actually he entered as a older puppy, and has since celebrated his first birthday as a shelter dog. He's spent time in a foster home before moving to BFF and he's done excellent everywhere he's lived!

Goblin is:

dog friendly
*handsome
*sweet
*perfect
*wanting a forever home

This boy is the cream of the crop and ready to move to his forever family! Contact HsCT to set up a meeting! Goblin is ready to go home!

The Waco Shelter is FULL, FULL, FULl, and they are needing adopters and fosters to come in today and save a life! There are many, many close to perfect pups that will fit into your home!

One of the best is Rosco! City Staff took this sweet boy on an outing the other day, and this is what they had to say!

Meet Roscoe!!! (A110321)

We had the honor of taking this sweet, handsome boy for a little escape from the shelter. We took him on a nice walk in Cameron Park, and he seemed to enjoy the taste of what waits for him outside of the shelter.

Roscoe is a gentle soul, who can be shy at first but once he trusts you he gives you his whole heart.

Roscoe LOVES car rides, and he loves a good snuggle and some scratches. He is also DOG FRIENDLY!

If you feel that Roscoe would be a good fit for you please come check him out at the Humane Society of Central Texas he’s got so much love to go around and he can’t wait to meet you!❤️🥰

Rosco is waiting to meet you at 2032 Circle Road! He's 3 years old and weighs about 75lbs.

We want to thank Brazos Valley Boarding Kennels for featuring our very own Pixel as their dog of the month!

Pixel has been waiting a while for a home of her own, and June is the perfect month to make that happen! Here is what BVBK had to say about this wonderful lady!

Introducing Ms. Pixel as our June dog of the month! ❤️🐶☀️ Pixel is this adorable Pittie mix that is staying here at BVBK and is up for adoption! She is the sweetest thing that loves everyone but loves her ball even more! Her favorite thing to do is race you to her ball and play tug of war. She is good with other calm dogs but prefers to spend time with her human friends. 🙋‍♀️ Give us a call if you would like more information or to set up a meet and greet! 📞❤️‍🔥🐾

It was another fabulous Saturday at the Downtown Farmer's Market! Fosters and Numbla from the shelter all had a wonderful time meeting and greeting folks!

Did you know that HSCT has become a popular attraction at the market and people make their way over to love on the dogs!

Meet Kaylee!

She’s a BEAUTIFUL, sweet little girl from the Humane Society of Central Texas who is looking for a family equally as sweet to love on her for life!! She’s an 8 month old Aus. Cattle dog mix- she’s spayed, house-trained, good on a leash, extremely dog friendly, and seems to be cat friendly as well. We do not own cats but she has spotted our neighbor cats on numerous occasions and has had zero reactions toward them.

She is sooo tender-hearted, gentle, and very intelligent! You just have to meet her!! You will want to give her the world!! She’s waiting on you!!😍

We are needing adopters and fosters today to help open kennels and save lives!
One kennel that could be opened is Blaze's. Blaze has struggled since returning to the shelter and has been at risk since day one.

Blaze has a wonderful opportunity to leave the shelter on 7/7/24 for a Board and Train facility thanks to a donor funding his training. He would benefit from some decompression time away from this environment so once he's at the trainers, he'll be ready to learn!

That means he could go into foster care for a little over a month before going to school, then hopefully to his forever home. Blaze is quite strong, but is a lap sitter who loves to give hugs and kisses. He's dog friendly to smaller groups, but it may be best to crate and rotate until he's calm - staff will explain this process if you're not familiar.

Come to 2032 Circle Road today and save this boy from the high stress environment. He's been let down too many times, and he deserves the opportunity to have a wonderful life. Come help Blaze start his new beginning today!

Good Tuesday Morning. We come to you this morning with needs, as in we NEED to get large to medium dogs out of the shelter today to save lives. We lost another baby yesterday, and even one life gone is one too many.

We are ever so grateful for those who came a took someone home, which did save us from losing more sweet pups! The only way to ensure that everyone remains safe if for YOU our wonderful community continues to show up.

Currently dogs are FREE to adopt - and we'll help you settle into a home any way we can. We want for you and your new fur to be happy together, and we realize sometimes our assistance is required to make the transition as smooth as possible!

Fostering is ALWAYS FREE. Folks, fostering is a HUGE life saving program, and we'd love for you to join this fantastic group and become a full-time or temp foster. There are many options for you to choose from, so come see us and let's set you up with a doggie foster.

Speaking of fosters, beautiful Yalina is scheduled to return today from foster care as her current foster is scheduled to return home. Her foster speaks so highly of Yalina and would love it, as would we for her to move into a new foster home or a forever home as opposed to coming back to a overcrowded shelter.

Yalina is a 1 year old, fixed German Shepherd Mix. She is dog, CAT, and all aged people friendly. She is also crate, potty, and leash trained. She is an excited dog, loves to play, and run around the yard.

This girl is absolutely perfect! She'll be headed to 2032 Circle Road today, swing by and sn**ch her up so she doesn't have to come back here!

Good Sunday Morning! We open in about an hour (1 - 5) and look forward to your visit to 2032 Circle Road!

Here is a photo of Zeke. You may remember, Zeke was a long stay. He is a great dog, people friendly, kid friendly, and dog friendly but he was constantly overlooked.

Why? Who knows. Zeke was becoming quite ansey in his kennel, which will eventually put him at risk. Friday, was a lucky day for Zeke, because he left for foster care!

This is what his foster has to say about Zeke.

Zeke is a doll! He's basically gone outside to briefly sniff and take care of business, cuddle a few minutes, but mostly what Zeke has done is sleep. The stress he was under is obvious, and now Zeke is decompressing, which is what he needs. He should be good to go in a few weeks, but for now, Zeke is going to relax in the calm of a home.

There are many wonderful dogs like Zeke who could use time away from the shelter. If you've ever thought about fostering, today is the day! There are approximately 200 dogs here, and each one would benefit from experiencing some quiet, soothing days!

As Zeke's foster, I'm saying don't thank me for taking Zeke. I'm someone. Be someone too, Come save a life! Come adopt or foster!

🚨 Folks, our situation is CRITICAL!

We have 6 dogs outside without overnight kennel space, our emergency triage spaces are overflowing, our boarding partners are full, and we have to do an emergency intake of 6 large breed dogs due to their owner being unhoused.

This is a crisis that requires immediate community action. We are beyond "code red" and desperately need your help to prevent or slow down the loss of life that may begin at any moment.

Please come foster one of our medium/large dogs.
Please come adopt.

We are beyond code red.

Lucky Lou A110809

Lucky Lou is a 2 year old male lab mix, weighing about 60lbs.

When he is not busy attending important business meetings or discussing synergy, he likes to cuddle with his humans and play with his doggie friends. In his foster home he gets along great with all dogs, big and small.

He is potty trained, crate trained, and he is non-destructive when left out of his crate. He is happy to curl up on the couch and wait for you to come home.

He is a little shy when meeting new people or being out in crowds, but he is very friendly with both people and dogs. and he warms up quickly if you give him a chance.

He hasn't been around cats, so we are not sure how he would do.
He doesn't live with kids either, but he has been doing extremely well when little kids were saying hi to him in public. Even once he has warmed up to us he has not been jumpy, so he could be a good candidate for families with kids.

He is looking for his forever home, or a semi-permanent new foster, between June 20 and August 20, when his current fosters will be out of town.

Hi all! My name is Lucky Hermione and I’m ready for my social media debut!

Actually you may have seen me and my siblings before when I was tiny and we were left at the shelter! I have been in foster care for most of my tiny life! I am almost four months old now!

Growing and learning so much from my foster mommy’s other dogs. While I am waiting for the perfect forever home, I have almost mastered potty training. I am crate trained already and learning doggy social skills from the other pups.

I am both a calm snuggle bug and and sneaky ninja when it comes to playtime. I am working on my leash skills. I am ok with kiddos but I still have a lot of playful energy! I haven’t met any cats yet, but I'm game!

My foster mommy says I deserve the best family ever! Is that you??
