Australian Shepherd and Labrador Retriever Dogs Available for Adoption in Austin, Texas

Keith and his brothers were picked up as strays and taken to a rural shelter we help. We only had 3 days to save them, because the shelter was full. Thankfully, one of our fosters agreed to bring Keith into her home. He is a very sweet pup, and we know there’s a great family for him out there.

Keith has done great with children as young as 6. He loves to play and has an outgoing personality. He is house trained and leash trained. He likes any attention he can get, and gives plenty of puppy kisses.

Keith is 6 months old and weighs 40 pounds. We think he’s an Australian Shepherd and Lab mix, and will be a medium sized adult.

Keith is neutered, vaccinated for rabies, DHPP and Bordetella. He is also microchipped, heartworm negative and is current on flea/tick and heartworm prevention.

Keith can arrive in Chester, Virginia on 5/8. If you are interested in adopting, please fill out the application found here: https://throwadogabone.org/adopt.
