What can I do if my dog keeps escaping?

  • What can I do if my dog keeps escaping?

Is your dog spayed/neutered? That can be a BIG help in preventing your dog from wanting to roam. 

Is your dog getting enough attention and exercise? If they’re bored, they’re more likely to try to get out and have an adventure.

Need help with fencing or a doghouse? 

  • Online Application for Fencing
  • Online Request for Dog House

Leaving a dog alone on a chain or a tether is prohibited by city law (Austin City Code Section 3-4-2)
