CEDAR PARK, Texas – A Cedar Park woman says one of the 13 dogs she rescued following their owner’s tragic death has been adopted.
What we know:
Payton Coker told FOX 7 Austin that one of the dogs has been adopted.

The dogs are currently staying on a ranch owned by Payton’s mother close to their original home. They’re mostly mixed breeds and range in size.
Coker is working to find homes for the dogs.
