Meet Nero, a perfectly imperfect (mostly perfect) lab mix! Sweet Nero was found alongside Highway 71 near the Austin airport, and was brought in to AAC by a Good Samaritan who couldnât keep him. The AAC vets noticed his slightly wonky front leg and realized that he had lived with it for years - and he gets around just fine, thank you very much!Volunteers all agree that four-year old Nero is one of the friendliest, sweetest, funniest buddies at AAC, loving his walks and playtime! Heâs very housetrained and knows âsitâ so we think heâs been in a home before. Nero is a little under 70 lbs and was able to get into a volunteerâs car on his own, with just a tiny helping hand! He took a special trip to a local TV station and he behaved like the superstar we know he is!!Nero is cuddly and loves laps, so clear some space for this friendly, treat-motivated, funny, adorable buddy!
