My story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Alma is a pit bull mix who is now going on 6 years old and has had quite the history with us. In 2020, at around a year old, we first received her from the city pound after she was held there and never claimed by an owner. She was with us for over a year and was adopted in January 2022. Her owner's situation changed drastically in 2023, so Alma was returned in July 2023 after 18 months in her home. It was hard for both of them, as Alma (known in her home as "Pretty"), was very loved by her owner.  Alma did very well in her home. It was a fairly quiet environment with just Alma and the lady who adopted her. Alma did tend to be pretty protective of her person as it was just the two of them. We do think she would do best in a similar environment. She does seem to respond best to women and enjoys cuddling in someone's lap. She's looking for an adult only home (teens are okay). No other animals. After all she has experienced, she deserves to be the only pet in the home. Alma is strong and active and will require regular exercise. Many of our volunteers have a soft spot for her and would like to see her get back into a home for good. She has been fully vetted and her fee is $125. Watch a TikTok video featuring Alma below! https://www.tiktok.com/@happy.critter.ranch/video/7292215239397887275 NOTE:  Adoptions are done via private appointment once an application has been completed and approved. An application can be submitted at our website, mchs.rescuegroups.org. We are located at 101 22nd St. SE in Austin, right next to the airport. It's exit 180B off of I-90, right off of 218 South. We do require that potential adopters be at least 21 years old and that any resident dogs be up to date on vaccinations, heartworm testing/preventative, and spayed or neutered.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.May 4, 2025, 8:11 pm

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Alma (Sponsored fee), please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
