Austin Pets Alive! received about 160 dogs from the evacuated Bastrop County Animal Shelter early Monday morning.
Volunteers from the Austin-based shelter took their personal vehicles to Bastrop to deliver the animals.
The first thing on the agenda for the evacuated dogs is vaccination. It was unknown how many of the dogs transferred were vaccinated, so APA! worked around the clock to give the animals necessary care before adoption.
APA! is asking for support from the community. Donations of dog beds, dog food, money and volunteers are all needed.
All animal adoptions at the shelter will be free Monday.
