Story
Meet Zu!We’ve quickly fallen in love with all the personality packed inside this tiny pup. Zu is a spirited, sassy little Chihuahua who tends to be cautious with new people. With patience, space, and gentle introductions, Zu opens up beautifully. Once he feels safe, he’s affectionate, goofy, and eager to snuggle with “his” people.Zu has lived with other dogs before, but here at the shelter he prefers doing his own thing (and occasionally announcing his boundaries with barks). We believe he would do better with no other dogs. He’ll thrive in a calm home without young children, where new faces and activity aren’t nonstop.Zu also has a grade 3 luxating patella in his knee. At this time, surgery is not recommended. We simply suggest limiting big jumps and fast zoomies—but walks, playtime, and all the cuddles are just what the doctor ordered!If you’re patient, kind, and ready to meet a spicy-sweet companion who will blossom in the right home, Zu may be your perfect match.Walk-in adoption hours: Monday, Wednesday & Thursday from 12–4 PMCan’t make those times?

Story
Meet McDreamy — a 12-pound Chihuahua who is exactly as charming as his name suggests. This little guy arrived with a painful eye condition and, once it was removed, he blossomed into the happiest, winking ray of sunshine you’ll ever meet. He's somewhere between 6-9 years old (best guess for this former stray). Like any self-respecting Chihuahua, McDreamy may bark or grumble when he meets someone new — but give him a minute and he’s melting into your arms, wagging his tail like a tiny propeller, and demanding snuggles as if you’ve been best friends forever. McDreamy’s vibe with other dogs: • Small dogs: “You’re cool. Let’s hang.” • Big dogs: “I decline.” He’s not a fighter, but he won’t back down if another dog brings the drama, so a home without an alpha-type resident is ideal. He’s affectionate, clever, deeply cuddly, and—bonus—housebroken. A tidy little gentleman through and through. Everything is exciting to McDreamy: • 🍽️ Mealtime: Pure joy. • 🌳 Walks: Peak adventure. • 🛌 Burrowing under the blankets: Nightly bliss. • 🎾 Toys: Big fan. Loves all of them. Will proudly parade them around like trophies. He asks for love almost instantly in neutral territory, snuggles like a pro, sleeps under the covers like it’s his life’s calling, and leans into you with total trust. He is currently getting daily ointment in his remaining eye, which he tolerates quite well, and may need it for the foreseeable future. If you’re looking for a pint-sized sweetheart who will adore you, follow you everywhere, and fill your home with wiggly, affectionate joy, McDreamy is ready to sweep you off your feet. 💕🐾 If you are interested in finding out more about McDreamy, please fill out an adoption application by copying and pasting the following link into your browser: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/BRO/Dog McDreamy is currently being fostered in Millbury, MA. The adoption fee is $500. Like Broken Tail Rescue on Facebook!. Follow Broken Tail Rescue on Instagram! Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable, so for most of the dogs, we are only guessing at the predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each dog as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not by breed label. We expect that all adopted dogs will enroll in a formal dog training class with their new owners. Obedience and training classes are an excellent way to learn more about your newly adopted dog, gain handling and training experience, and improve your relationship with your pet.

Story
Drake and Maye are a deeply bonded pair who came to the shelter after the heartbreaking loss of their owner. After so much change, these boys are simply looking for a soft, steady place to land and a family to call their own again.Drake is the shyer of the two at first and may need a little time to feel comfortable. Once he knows you, he melts into a happy puddle of snuggles, happily flinging himself into laps and soaking up attention. He also enjoys long walks and time spent close to his people. Maye is the steady, confident presence in their partnership. He helps Drake feel brave and is often the first to greet new friends, offering quiet reassurance along the way.Drake is currently on a weight-loss journey and will need to be fed separately from Maye to help him stay on track. Their adopters should be prepared to continue supporting healthy routines for both boys.If there are children in the home, teens and older would be the best fit. Drake and Maye are ready to bring comfort, companionship, and quiet loyalty to a home that will cherish them together.If you are interested in adopting these wonderful senior boys, please visit the shelter on Mondays, Wednesdays, or Thursdays between 12–4pm. Their combined adoption fee is $200 for both. If you are unable to visit during those hours, please email dogs@worcesterarl.org to inquire about scheduling an appointment.

Story
Archie is a charming Chihuahua with a big personality and a big heart. Like a tiny dragon guarding his treasure, Archie has a history of resource guarding around food. If allowed to collect and hoard food items in his bed or crate, he may growl or lunge to protect them. Archie will thrive in a home that understands this behavior or is willing to learn. His new home should be adult only, relatively quiet and commitment to management, structure, and positive reinforcement. Sometimes Archie does not want to be picked up or moved, he enjoys having a some independence.Outside of this challenge, Archie is tons of fun. He loves going for walks, enjoys staying active, and can be an incredibly affectionate, loyal companion. With the right guidance and consistency, Archie has so much love to give and is ready to share his life with someone who sees the wonderful dog he is. If you are interested in meeting Archie, please email info@worcesterarl.org. Meeting Archie is by appointment only, thank you!

Story
Meet Rex, a sweet little chihuahua mix with a gentle soul and a curious mind. Quite timid at first, he prefers to observe the world from a safe distance, taking everything in with wide, thoughtful eyes. With a little patience and yummy treats, his personality begins to shine through, leading him to cautiously explore at his own pace. Rex came to Massachusetts from Texas as a stray in late November and is working on adjusting to the cold and snow. He’s happy to head outside to take care of business, but doesn’t linger—he much prefers returning to the safety of the indoors. Rex arrived with a collapsing trachea, a chronic cough, and a heart arrhythmia and murmur, all of which are currently managed with daily medications. He takes his meds like a champ, especially when they’re wrapped in turkey. He currently coexists peacefully with a medium sized dog and a pleasantly plump cat. A calm, gentle, and loving environment would be ideal for this sweet little guy, one where he can feel safe, supported, and encouraged, preferably with a warm lap always nearby for snuggles. With time and gentle reassurance, Rex is sure to blossom into a deeply loving companion. He is the sweetest and easiest low maintenance pup and guaranteed to make you laugh on a daily basis. If you are interested in finding out more about Rex, please fill out an adoption application by copying and pasting the following link into your browser: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/BRO/Dog Rex is being fostered in West Boylston.

Story
Hopper is a small, sweet, affectionate dog who has been a deeply loved part of our family. He came to Massachusetts from Puerto Rico and was rescued through Sterling Animal Shelter, where we adopted him on October 13, 2019, when he was just 3 months old. Now an adult dog, Hopper thrives in calm, predictable environments. He is fully potty trained, walks well on a leash, and knows basic commands like sit and paw. He enjoys going for walks, quiet companionship, and being close to the people he trusts. Hopper is loyal and loving but does best when his boundaries are respected—especially around food and when he is sleeping. He prefers not to be startled during these moments. We are seeking a child-free home or a home with older, dog-savvy children, with an owner who understands dog behavior and can provide structure and consistency. This decision comes from love and responsibility, and our hope is to place Hopper in a home where he can feel safe, relaxed, and truly thrive.
