Golden Retriever Dogs Available for Adoption in Austin, Texas

While this young girl may not have known a home life before (she came from a partner shelter), the first thing she did was crawl up in a volunteer's lap to bask in the joy of human companionship. When that wasn't enough, she boosted herself up on their shoulders and rested her head softly on them in a hug.

Lassie is young and ready to learn what it's like to be loved! She's a silly girl and happy to soak up attention wherever she can find it!
