Apollo and Charlie- Two very special dogs

Austin Dogtown is thrilled to be fostering two very special dogs. Charlie and Apollo made their journey from a shelter in Gonzales TX. They have been living together in the same run at the shelter for almost a year and are now back together being fostered with us at Austin Dogtown! As you can see from the video and pictures…they are quite a bonded pair. They love to spend the morning with lots of playtime, afternoon napping in the same crate and sleep in side in crates at night. They love to play together and are great at entertaining each other!!

Apollo is a sweet, gentle, beautiful boy with a soft golden coat and the sweetest eyes ever! Apollo is a very calm dog for his young age, but also loves playing with toys and especially other dog friends! So far he is doing great with his housetraining and does just fine in his crate as long as Charlie is nearby. He's really great on a leash, and would be just as happy with daily neighborhood walks as he would with longer walks/runs. He is great with all other dogs, both big and small.

Charlie is a small hound/cattle dog mix that is full of sweetness!! He loves playing with all other dogs- and likes 2 legged friends too. He can be a bit tentative when meeting new people or when coming across loud noises/occurrences- but recovers quickly!  He is potty trained and loves having his peanut butter kong each night in his crate.

We know it is not always possible for two dogs to be placed together, but we are believing in that outcome for the two of them. So if you're looking to add 2 dogs to your home, there are no two dogs that would love it or be more grateful than Apollo and Charlie! Plus, you would be getting TWO fabulous dogs that you already know love each other. They can’t wait to find that special home to call their own! If you are interested in meeting them, please contact us or Austin Dog Rescue (http://www.austindog.org/).

After hearing Apollo and Charlies story- one of our awesome customers who also adopted a dog (Brody)from Austin Dog Rescue has offered to donate one of their adoption fee if adopted together! 

Brody was a very special dog who needed to be matched with a home with another dog to be happy. He met Luna (who is a daycare regular) while he was being fostered at Austin Dogtown last spring and Luna's mom decided to adopt him. Luna and Brody LOVE each other and Brody is the happiest dog in the world...and Luna loves having a brother. They are quite a bonded pair :) 

So if Apollo and Charlie are lucky enough to find a home together- their TOTAL adoption fee will be just $165!Two awesome dogs for the price of one...and a built in playmate :)
