Story
Meet Jenga, a 2-year-old pittie mix who came to the shelter as a stray and is now ready for a fresh start in a patient, loving home. Jenga is shy when meeting new people, but once she feels safe and is given the space to come forward on her own, she forms strong bonds and shows her truly wonderful personality. Her soft little face, and happy greetings make a little patience worth getting to know her!With people she trusts, Jenga is playful, affectionate, and delightfully silly. She loves playing with toys, is very treat-motivated, and enjoys getting out for walks. Jenga has spent time in the office with staff and does best in calm environments where she can build confidence at her own pace.Jenga has not made dog friends at the shelter and tends to move away from other dogs, so she would likely prefer to be the only dog. If there are children in the home, she is looking for older teens who can give her a little time to bond. If you are interested in adopting this great pup, please come to the shelter with your human family members on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays between 12-4pm. If those times don`t work for you, please email dogs@worcesterarl.org to see if we have other available times for you to meet them.

Story
Dorito is a young, sensitive soul who is learning that the world can be a safe and kind place. At about 1½ years old, he is still growing into himself and discovering confidence one step at a time. Dorito can be shy when meeting new people, but with treats, patience, and a calm approach, he warms up and shows his sweet, goofy side. Once he trusts you, his personality truly shines—and he has quickly become a staff favorite because of it. If there are to be kids in his new home, they should be older teenagers. Dorito is very food motivated, which makes him a great candidate for positive-reinforcement training and confidence-building activities. He has lived with other dogs in the past, but he can be cautious about making new dog friends and would benefit from slow, thoughtful introductions.Dorito is looking for a home with mature, empathetic people who understand that trust takes time. But once you have that trust, he is so much fun!If you are interested in adopting Dorito, please come to the shelter, with the folks who live in your home and other dogs on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays between 12-4pm. If you are unable to come during those hours please email dogs@worcesterarl.org to see what other times may be available.

Frito is looking for adopters who will spend time getting to know her gentle soul and can continue to build her confidence throughout her life.

Story
Meet Coco — a 57-pound Pitbull mix beauty who’s equal parts sweetheart, snugglebug, and self-appointed bodyguard of love. 💗 Coco is very sweet, very smart, and very loyal — but she’s also got a bit of a resource-guarding streak and takes her “protect my people, snacks, toys, and space” duties seriously. She’s looking for an experienced dog owner who can help her feel safe, decompress, and channel her energy in all the right ways. Coco’s one of those dogs who wants her favorite humans close by — ideally the kind who work from home and don’t mind sharing their bed, couch, or general existence with a 57-pound shadow. She adores people she trusts and will happily curl up with you for belly rubs, naps, and snacks — basically, the holy trinity of dog happiness. She’s good with cats — as long as they’re independent types who won’t try to steal her bed or her spotlight. Coco’s all about peaceful coexistence, not sharing her throne. 👑 If you’ve got a calm, kid-free home, some dog experience, and room in your heart (and on your couch) for one fabulous, loyal lady — Coco’s ready to be your devoted best friend. 🐾💕 If you are interested in finding out more about Coco, please fill out an adoption application by copying and pasting the following link into your browser: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/BRO/Dog Coco is being fostered in West Roxbury, MA. The adoption fee is $400. 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 Bella - This friendly pittie mix has a tail that never stops wagging! Bella came into our care with her puppies when her previous owner could no longer care for them. She’s been around kids before, knows several commands, and truly loves being with her people. Bella would thrive in a home where someone is around often to give her the love and attention she craves. She does have a strong interest in chasing other pets, so a pet-free home would be best for her. Ready to fall in love? Come by the shelter to meet Bella and see if she’s the perfect fit for your family!

Blitz

Boxer Hound (Unknown Type)

Male, 7 yrs 3 mos

Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Meet Blitz! Blitz is a 6-year-old, 55 pound working dog. He's smart, food driven, and loves playing fetch. He sleeps through the night in his crate, is house trained, loves learning new tricks, and can be good with other dogs if they allow him to calmly greet them. Blitz would do best in an adult only home, with an owner who is active. He loves going on walks, runs, hikes and car rides. He can be wary of new people, and will need someone to continue to train him on confidence building. Blitz will walk in a heel when requested, he is a quick learner, super food motivated, and will LOVE his owners immensely. Update from foster Mom: With his people, he is the BEST dog, and he's good with dogs if they aren't pushy. He's a quick learner, a cuddle bug, and house-trained. He LOVES hiking with me in the woods, has an amazing recall, and loves playing fetch. I believe he would be the best dog on a farm, where he isn't forced to interact with strangers. I strongly believe that when he is off leash, he will choose to avoid strangers as opposed to confronting them. So why has this amazing already trained pup been with us so long? He doesn't do too well with strangers. We've gotten people interested, but seemingly they seem to ignore his "wary of new people" bit in his bio, and those who have applied want a friendly dog who is ok with meeting everyone. Are you someone who will allow Blitz to become comfortable with strangers slowly? Maybe an active outdoorsy introvert? Or okay with leaving your pup at home while you go out to be extroverted? Blitz is AMAZING. He just needs someone who understands he isn't too fond of people until he feels safe with them. This means not allowing others to approach him on walks and when out and about. No trips to Home Depot or TJ Maxx for this guy. He only needs outings with his new parents! P.S. This means he will take time to warm up to you too! If you are interested in finding out more about Blitz, please fill out an adoption application by copying and pasting the following link into your browser: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/BRO-A-67 Blitz is being fostered in Grafton. The adoption fee is $500. Like Broken Tail Rescue on Facebook!. Follow Broken Tail Rescue on Instagram!
