We got to check in with our precious friend Shishito today! 🥰
We adore this brave lady and she and her fam are doing their very best to help her move forward in a healthy way from a serious trauma background. Progress isn’t always linear but we think Shishito and her parents are moving the right direction and doing a great job making adjustments as needed.
You’ve got this, sweet girl. ❤️
This beautiful girl is Lainey! 🥰
Lainey needs a little help with her comfort and skills to navigate certain situations. One of those situations is meeting new to her humans but she did a wonderful job with that today! ❤️
Happy 4th Birthday, Bugsy!!! 🥳🕺🏼❤️
Bugsy’s family shared these celebration pics along with a really touching update and we wanted to share here too because this birthday celebration is a very big deal.
In the update, mom notes that this time last year, they weren’t sure Bugsy would make it to his 4th birthday. His family could not even get him safely in and out to the bathroom and the living situation was really hard for everyone, Bugsy included. The first videos they sent us before we met him were heartbreaking.
We were guarded about Bugsy’s prognosis too, as was the veterinary behaviorist we partner with for his case, but everyone was on board to give Bugsy our best and see if we could turn things around. Bugsy’s progress has exceeded all of our expectations and also in his most recent update, mom says they feel like they have their dog back.
We are taking next steps slowly to minimize the chance of any regression but this buddy’s birthday celebration is such a heartwarming milestone that we want to shout out how proud we are of him and his family and what a true pleasure it has been being part of this success story. 🥹🥲
Happiest birthday ever, Bugsy!!! 🙌🏽❤️
A few weeks ago, we got to take @austinanimalcenter #adoptable boy Binkles on two sponsored outings thanks to one of his best #volunteer friends. 🥰
This morning, she messaged us that this sweet buddy is still at the shelter and feeling pretty stressed. While Binkles finds the shelter environment overwhelming, he’s a rockstar out in the world.
On his first field trip, he frolicked at the park and got to explore on a long line to find all the best sniffs. On his second outing, he got to go for a home visit where he proved that he’s excellent in that setting and it’s definitely where he belongs! ❤️
Binkles is hoping his adventure buddy for keeps comes along soon. You can read more about this awesome boy and request to meet him here:

We got to check in with #adoptable man Hotchy in his temporary #foster home today! 🥰
This guy is so good, y’all. A casual loose leash walker, a snuggle buddy indoors, and a social embassadog to each human he meets.
Hotchy has an awesome featured post over on the @orangedotcrew page and he is hoping with all his might that it lands him a long term foster or adopter so he doesn’t have to go back to the shelter. Please go check it out! ❤️
We got to meet recent @austin_bulldog_rescue alum Tank this morning! 🥰
This little man experienced some trauma in his previous living situation but we are so impressed with his resilience. It’s early into his time in his new home but so far he is settling in great and living his best life.
Get it, Tank! ❤️
This cutest guy is Bodhi! 🥰
Bodhi sounded like a bit of a complicated gentleman from his client form. While he does have some things he needs help with, living successfully with dad’s partner’s dog the trickiest among them, he’s also an awesome guy who charmed our socks off today.
Bodhi, we think you’re a gem buddy! ❤️
Oh goodness, guys. This precious boy is Wally! 🥰
Wally has some very big worries about a lot of things. Noises and being out in the world without a doggie friend as moral support are two of the biggest. Even his own backyard can be scary for him. We have to say though, he was a very brave boy today and totally melted our heart.
What a guy, Wally! ❤️
This beautiful boy is Bruno! 🥰
Bruno has been having some worries meeting new to him people and welcoming visitors to his home. He’s also been taking alert barking at certain things outside a liiiittle farther than mom & dad would like.
This buddy did a great job making a new friend today and we’re excited to join his team! ❤️
