Story
This 6-month-old Jack Russell Terrier mix puppy is small, sassy, and full of opinions. Brody can be shy at first and may bark when meeting new people, but once he realizes you’re a friend, he quickly turns into a sweet, silly little shadow.Brody is in full baby shark teething mode and is still learning how to use his mouth appropriately. He is doing great with redirection to toys (as pictured!) and will thrive with patient, consistent guidance.Brody is looking for a home without other dogs at this time.If there are to be kids in his new home, they should be older and patient. He would thrive with adults who appreciate a smart, spirited puppy who just needs a little help growing into his best self. He needs patient and kind folks who can encourage confidence!If you are interested in adopting Brody, please come to the shelter on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays between 12-4pm. If you are unable to come during those times, please email dogs@worcesterarl.org to see if we have other available times!

Story
Tramp may be an older lady, but she has got plenty of spunky energy about her. She is a Jack Russel mix after all! She is a goofy girl and always a joy to hang out with. Tramp has had quite the adventure making her way here, in fact she flew in from down south! In her previous foster home, Tramp was known for taking any opportunity to explore on her own, so she's probably not the best candidate for off-leash training. Tramp doesn't mind the company of low-key dogs, so she may be open to living with one (given a successful meeting here at the shelter). She was known for chasing cats, so a cat free home would be ideal. If you are interested in Tramp, give us a call at 603-472-3647 and press 1 for adoptions.

Story
Meet Isabella!! From Spins to Snuggles — the Rodeo Clown of Your Heart Isabella is a 2-year-old, 40-pound Jack Russell terrier mix (with a sprinkle of mystery DNA and a whole lot of personality). She’s sweet, silly, and just quirky enough to keep you laughing. At first, she might hang back and size you up — her “is this human cool?” test. But once you pass, watch out: you’re getting kisses, wiggles, and a lifetime subscription to her comedy show. Her signature move? The spin. When she’s happy, Isabella goes full Spinderella, twirling on her back feet like she’s auditioning for Broadway. Add in her zoomies, her famous “pancake flop” when she’s not ready to move, and her bob-and-weave routine that makes clipping her leash a sport, and you’ve got front-row seats to the funniest rodeo in town. And once the leash is clipped? Boom — she’s off like a racecar at the Indy 500. But don’t let her rodeo clown energy fool you. Inside, Isabella is a world-class snuggler. She settles beautifully with a toy or a cuddle and will happily trade in her rodeo boots for a quiet night in. She’s crate trained, house trained, walks well on leash, and has a wonderfully balanced energy: playful and spunky outside, calm and affectionate inside. She’d adore a fenced yard to show off her spins and zooms, and while she loves the company of other pups, she’d also thrive as the star of your show. Isabella isn’t just a dog — she’s joy, laughter, and love bundled up in one bouncy, goofy package. If you’ve been waiting for a best friend who’ll make you laugh daily and love you endlessly, Isabella is ready to lasso your heart.

Story
This sweet girl ended up on the abandoned in AK once she was pregnant, which we all know wasn't her fault. Polly was an awesome mama to her seven pups. She has arrived in new England and this is what her Foster has to say:  She's absolutely adorable. She's been someone's pet at some point. She has been doing her business outside. She happily plays with toys by herself and wants to be next to a human. She was more interested in the cat food than the cat itself. She loves my 10 year old son the most, so she'd be suitable for a family with older kids and perhaps even young kids. I feel that she has adjusted the quickest of all dogs I've fostered so far. Who ever adopts her, will get a great dog. She's just so good If you are interested in adopting please fill out our application from our webite.  Fromalonetohomerescue.org ##2620845##
