Story
Meet Echo! Echo is an adventurous, loving and smart shepherd mix. She is an active girl looking for a fresh start!Echo`s three favorite things are being outside, cream cheese and tennis balls. She loves to spend her days outside playing fetch, going on hikes and then settling in with some cream cheese filled enrichment. If you`re looking for a happy adventure buddy, then Echo is the one for you!Echo is looking for adopters who can continue to put her brain to use (she loves to learn new tricks) and show her the ropes of being a dog. She is incredibly loyal and will lean in for pets once comfortable. Echo may enjoy living with older kids, but we are not sure if she ever has lived with them. Dogs? Maybe, but they would have to meet first. If you are interested in adopting Echo, please come to the shelter on Mondays, Wednesday and Thursdays between 12-4pm and bring the folks that you live with. If you are unable to come during those hours, please email dogs@worcesterarl.org to request an appointment, and let us know your availability.

Story
Meet Baylee, a silly, playful and adventurous shepherd mix. There is nothing Baylee loves more than playing with toys (especially in the snow- she’s a huge fan). She is a true fetch fanatic and could spend all day with her favorite tennis balls and stuffies. She even carries them with her on walks!! She is incredibly food motivated and loves to learn.Baylee is super smart and has already mastered sit, paw and down. While she is still learning to calmly walk on leash she has made great progress. Baylee has enjoyed going on hikes with her favorite staff members and would thrive in an active home where she has the opportunities to get all her energy out. Due to her size and exuberant personality, if there are to be kids in her new home, she would do best in a home with older teens who are big enough that she can romp around and continue training with. She would prefer to be the only dog so she can soak up every minute of attention but might be able to have dog friends. If you are interested in adopting Baylee, please come to the shelter on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays between 12-3:45pm. Please bring everyone who would live Baylee. Please email dogs@worcestearl.org to see what other times may be available if you are unable to come during the above hours

Story
Meet Balto, a handsome 4 year old pup in the prime of his life — strong, energetic, and ready for adventure. This handsome boy came to Broken Tail Rescue when his owner sadly realized they could no longer give him the time and attention that he needs. Now, Balto is waiting for a family who can match his enthusiasm and zest for life. Balto is exceptionally smart and highly food-motivated, which makes training both fun and effective. He loves learning, thrives with structure, and truly enjoys working with his people. Whether it’s mastering new commands, going on long walks, playing fetch, or engaging in mentally stimulating games, Balto is happiest when he’s active and involved. Winter is his season — he absolutely lights up in the snow! Watching him roll, bounce, and zoom around in a snowy yard is pure joy. Because of his energy level and strength, Balto would do best in a home where people are around often and can provide regular exercise, continued training, and plenty of engagement. He has a big personality — playful, affectionate, and full of character — along with an even bigger heart. He bonds deeply with his humans and wants nothing more than to be part of the action. His ideal forever home would include a family, someone that works from home, and a fenced in yard. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will keep you active, make you laugh, and shower you with love, Balto may be your perfect match. If you are interested in finding out more about Balto, please fill out an adoption application by copying and pasting the following link into your browser: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/BRO/Dog Balto is being fostered in Worcester, 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
Meet Hunter! Hunter is approximately 1.5 year old, 47 lbs currently and he may have some Shepherd in his mix. He was found as a stray running loose at a wildlife refuge in the south. In his southern foster home, he is doing great with his important life skills like house training, crate training and leash walking. He could go to a home with other dogs, dog-savvy cats and kids 10+.His foster says, `Hunter is a wonderful pup!! He loves attention and getting petted! He thinks he’s a lap dog.He loves to play with the other dogs. He does not care for an overly playful puppy. But he does very well with a bigger dog that’s older. He needs a fenced in yard as he loves to be outside with all the pup toys and sun himself! We spend a lot of time outside and he loves that. Hunter is learning all the important stuff like potty training, crate training, keeping 4 paws on the floor, and leash training. He does have an accident from time to time but is almost potty trained. The crate training is going well. He sleeps in the crate at night with a night light. I think he might be a little scared of the dark. He will bark a little bit but settles down after a few minutes. He is still learning to keep 4 paws on the floor. And for that reason I think he would do awesome with a 10 or older kid! He might accidentally scare a smaller child. He loves to go on walks and does very well with the leash!! He also does well in public. Very good at vets office and he’s been to Tractor Supply a few times and loved it! He’s getting used to car rides. He just lays in the seat like a good boy! He has been around my cat and chases him for fun. So he would do well with a dog savvy cat! Hunter has been a joy to foster! He has a lot of love to give and will make a great addition to someone’s family.`He is available for adoption in Hopkinton or Arlington by appointment with an approved adopter. Please fill out an application on our website at https://www.browndogcoalition.com/adoptable as a first step.-Dogs may not be given as gifts or surprises.-Please thoughtfully discuss with your entire household the physical, safety, financial and emotional responsibilities of a dog BEFORE applying to adopt.- More information about our adoption process, application and adoption fees can be found at browndogcoalition.com

If you love the outdoors, he is your boy!`He is available for adoption in Upton or Hopkinton, MA.
