Wednesday Friends Day is back with an adorable new face! Jasmine is a sweet, playful puppy from Central Texas SPCA<\/a> who already loves people, other dogs and plenty of toys, and she’s ready to find a family of her own.<\/p>\n

Heather from Central Texas SPCA<\/a>, soon to be known as Central Texas Tails of Hope, joined We Are Austin’ Trevor Scott to introduce Jasmine and share updates on the organization’s new facility, an upcoming trivia fundraiser and ways Central Texans can help.<\/p>\n

Meet Jasmine<\/p>\n

At about 3 months old, Jasmine is still very much a puppy, though her surprisingly calm personality quickly won over the We Are Austin studio.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe’s just really calm for a three-month-old puppy,\u201d Heather said. \u201cWe’re used to chaos at three months old.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jasmine is expected to grow to around 45 to 50 pounds and has already shown plenty of promising qualities. Heather says she loves the people and dogs she’s met and is doing well on a leash.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe’s great on a leash already,\u201d Heather said. \u201cShe’s just a superstar.\u201d<\/p>\n

Of course, adopting a puppy still means being ready for plenty of playtime, walks, training and attention. Jasmine especially enjoys rope toys and a good game of tug.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe’s got energy even though, for a puppy, again, she’s pretty calm,\u201d Heather said. \u201cBut we’ve got to work out that puppy energy.\u201d<\/p>\n

A New Home for Central Texas SPCA<\/p>\n

Jasmine is one of several dogs available through Central Texas SPCA<\/a>, which also has plenty of cats and kittens looking for homes.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, work continues on the organization’s new facility. Heather said the building recently passed its city inspection, marking another step toward completion.<\/p>\n

The organization expects to transition into the new facility around November, which will allow it to expand its work serving animals in Central Texas.<\/p>\n

Put Your Knowledge to the Test<\/p>\n

Supporters can also help the shelter while showing off their trivia skills at the upcoming Karma’s Challenge <\/a>in Leander.<\/p>\n

The family-friendly trivia fundraiser will feature rounds ranging from easy to challenging, with proceeds supporting the shelter.<\/p>\n

\u201cBring your family, bring your friends,\u201d Heather said. \u201cEvery dollar is going directly to support the shelter.\u201d<\/p>\n

Registration information is available through the organization’s website.<\/a><\/p>\n

Foster, Volunteer, Donate or Adopt<\/p>\n

As construction continues, Central Texas SPCA still has a funding gap to close for its new building and is seeking financial support.<\/p>\n

The organization also needs volunteers and fosters, particularly as it prepares for the transition into the new facility.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you could open your home to foster temporarily, volunteer\u2014I mean, we can’t wait to have volunteers out at our new facility when it opens in November,\u201d Heather said.<\/p>\n

And, of course, there’s always adoption.<\/p>\n
