The Austin Humane Society



How many of you know that we help the Austin SPCA? We do! Every week. Yes, every week. Laura Leigh whom you know from our 10 questions post, has been helping out the SPCA every week for the past year.

What she is doing is great for the animals. The SPCA will bring in a dog every Monday that needs our help. They get an extra special bath and a groom if they need it. Lastly they get a spiffy new bandanna around their neck.

Almost all of the dogs that have been to Midtown have been adopted within the week. I think it's mostly to do with the spiffy bandanna!



Yesterday we had a truly amazing dog come in to the shop. Her name is Chickpea. She is a pit bull mix. She is about 10 months old and a sweetheart! She is a special case because she is deaf. This doesn't stop her from being the best dog that you could possibly adopt. She also has a congenital defect in her left eye so she will probably need surgery and lose sight in the eye. So if you are reading this close to the date posted please go adopt her! You would not regret it at all. Here is the link so you can check her out yourself, or you might find another dog to fall in love with.

Recontruction Part 2


So it's been awhile. We hope everyone had a beautiful holiday season and everything is getting back to normal. We had a very busy season. We were filled to the brim this season with lots of boarding dogs, and also doggies coming to get gussied up for all of the celebrations going on.


Now that it is the new year we are starting to get reorganized and make big plans for the year. You will have to check in on the blog often to see what is happening and what your dogs are up to!




With new years come new projects. We have a big one underway right now in our bathing room. As you have read before the house that we are in is old and needs some upgrades. The bathing room was a major one. We will put up some photos a it progresses. Here are the first few ones that we have now.

We hope you New Year Resolutions are going well. There is always one that we can help you with at Midtown. That one is helping keep your pet clean and looking pretty all year long! So come by and see us soon!
