Streudel was adopted by a young woman on Wednesday. That is all the information we have. Streudel was a favorite of all the volunteers. We’ll miss her.

A nice young couple looking for a dog to run with spotted Cha Cha on our website last night. After meeting her today, they decided to adopt her! Cha Cha was out on the trail when we got the good news. Thanks to all the trail volunteers and everyone else who helped to keep this very active girl sane through her long stay at the shelter.

All we know is the adopter brought in a huge male pit bull for a meet and greet with Penny. Good luck, Penny!

Pudding went home with a nice couple on Saturday. She will be joining two older male dogs. Everyone will miss Pudding, but we are so happy to see this deserving girl get a great home.

Beau was adopted through Austin Pets Alive! His new owners report being very happy with him.

After 3 months in the shelter, sweet Kisses was finally adopted! That’s all we know for now. Hopefully, we will get an update or more information about her new adopters soon.

Update: The adopters had been coming in for months but had never noticed Kisses. When they finally met her and saw how sweet she was with their child, they fell in love. They couldn’t believe they had overlooked her so many times. Many of our running and walking buddies are overlooked gems, or at least diamonds in the rough. Come down and meet them and give them a chance.

Jasmine was adopted today. Someone saw her posting and wanted to give this sweet older girl a comfortable home to end her days in. We wish them the best of luck.

Tate was adopted by a wonderful woman with a lot of dog experience yesterday. He did great his first day in his new home. He went on a long walk, played with the neighbor's labs, and had fun swimming in the pool. Tate may finally get the life he missed out on for so long. Good luck Tate!

No details are known, but Apache went home.

Precious was adopted sometime Friday.

Sir Thomas was adopted Saturday, one day shy of his 3 month anniversary at the shelter. The couple promise to get him any training he needs and send us pictures and updates. Good luck, Sir Thomas (now named Marley). We will all miss you.

Someone at the doggie daycare Arlo was attending fell in love with him. Arlo will not only get to go to work with her, but will have all the training he needs to be the wonderful dog he was meant to be. A special thanks to everyone who worked so hard to save Arlo.

No further information, but Terrence went home this Sunday.

No details are known, but Henry was adopted by a woman who fell in love with him.

A great young family saw Gabe on Sunday and fell in love. The woman runs on the hike and bike trail every day so look out for Gabe on the trail.

What a busy weekend and week so far! Marshmallow went home with a great family on Saturday. She will live with two other pits and be spoiled rotten. She deserves it. Cinders and Petunia also went home this weekend, and Samson went home today. Thanks to everyone who helped spread the word about these great dogs.

Peter was adopted today. The only information we have is that a woman adopted Peter. Volunteers went the extra mile to put flyers of Peter up all over the city in advance of this weekend. Thanks for all the hard work.

A young man came in and adopted Alexander yesterday. This may be the same man who came in Saturday who had seen our flyers and was looking for a running buddy.

Frankie was adopted. We don't have much more information, but a young woman saw his flyer last week, so this may be the same woman who adopted him.

Clancy was adopted by a young couple with a lot of experience with pit bulls. This was particularly exciting because they had been thinking about buying a very expensive designer pit bull. TLAC receives over 3,000 pit bulls each year. Most will not find homes in time. If you like pit bulls, please consider adopting one instead of buying one.

A volunteer spotted Keisha, who was adopted about a week ago, running with her new "mom" on the trail.

What a great weekend! First Barney went home yesterday, then Chickpea was adopted today. I met the couple and they were very nice and really fell in love with Chickpea. They seemed like great adopters. Hopefully, we'll get an update from them soon.

Barney was adopted this afternoon! A family saw him doing his spin in his kennel last weekend and the 3 kids fell in love with him. The father came back for Barney today. We'll try to get updates from the adopters to see how Barney is doing in his new home.

hello! this is heather Lance's mom and i just wanted to give you an update on how he is doing. well he is doing great!!!  and am truly still in awe of how wonderfull he is turning out to be!!! he knows several commands now, he knows sit,(this is the only thing he already knew) but i taught him... stay, shake, high five, wisper and speak. he learns fast!! and he is haveing a blast! he comes ot work with me at the pet hotel i work out and i foud out that he is great with other dogs and i guess since he hasn't gotten to play in a long time with other dogs he has a blast!!!!!  LOVES to play! and when i dont take him to doggie day camp we go to the dog park where he has alot more room to RUN.  once he got used to a schedule he was pretty well potty trained.  he has only had 2 accidents and he has chewed up a few things but we solved that by giving him some good tuff chew toys. :D  he starts his training classes the 16th.  he is such a sweet boy. a big lover!!!! he loves to lay his head  in our laps and just let us pet him for forever. and when he is inside he is a big sleepy head and sleeps alot. but once i say 'lets go outside' he perks right up!! he is  a great dog!!! oh and we went to the vet tuesday and he s in good health... he had some bald spots on his back that noone seemed to know what they were and we were guessing it was from really poor nutrition.... well the vet scrapped his skin and he had mites. :( :( but she gave him a shot and they are going away pretty quickly.  his tummy is getting back to normal..... he had diahrea alot while in the shelter and they weren't sure why and thought he had a parasite or something.... but i think it was just all the different food he was getting all the time, but i put him on a god premium food and he is doing well on it.    well overall he is very happy, calm, carefree and just wants some loving.   i included a bunch of pictures of him and us together; your welcome to use these on the website or wherever as a 'testimony' type thing or whatever else. :) well we will send you guys some more updates in a few weeks.

Both Keisha and Logan were adopted today. We don't know Keisha's story, but someone saw Logan's flyer and came in to adopt him. Keep up the good work. The flyers can really make a difference.

Oliver was adopted this week. I don't have any other details, but we're very happy this special dog found a home.

Great news. Lance was adopted 1/23/2008. We got an email from his new owner the next day saying that Lance had already learned 2 new commands and was settling in to his new home. Thanks to everyone who posted flyers for Lance.

The Statesman has a great article today about Lizzie, a dog we featured back in December, and how the Adopt a Running Buddy program saved her life. It features great photos of Lizzie enjoying life with her new family - and even going for regular walks on the hike and bike trial. This is what it's all about. Thanks everyone.
