To achieve our mission we

• Promote the valuable role of pet therapy in our community

• Provide programs for children and their families who are affected by Autism Spectrum Disorder and other special learning needs
• Provide professional and positive dog training classes

Austin Dog Alliance is not a business, it’s a passion. Take one of our classes, enjoy one of our events or volunteer to help.

Together, we can make a difference!
