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.

Details

Story

Meet Hercules Hercules is a sensitive, loyal dog who takes his time getting comfortable with new people. He isn’t a “love at first sight” kind of guy—he needs multiple meet-and-greets before feeling safe enough to go home—but once he trusts you, his bond is deep and devoted.With his person, Hercules truly shines. He loves going on walks (where there isn`t a lot of traffic walking past), playing with his toys, and winding down with some well-earned snuggles at the end of the day. He forms a strong attachment to one person and is happiest in a calm, predictable environment.Hercules would do best in a single-person household and cannot go to an apartment. He needs a home with more space and a stable environment. A home with no children living in or visiting is required. Because he bonds closely and can be protective, he needs an experienced, committed adopter who understands his needs. Continued professional dog behavior training would be a big benefit for him and will help set everyone up for success.If you’re patient, consistent, and looking for a deeply loyal companion, Hercules may be the perfect match for you

Story

Meet Morgan, a 2 year old, 11 lb Papillon, who came to his foster home in Somerville with his tiny new best friend Bandit (also adoptable through Broken Tail Rescue). These two little adventurers who met foster care and instantly decided life was better together. While two different breeds from two rescue situations, they have remarkably similar personalities (twin brothers from other mothers? From the moment they met, they became inseparable. They chase and play around the house, curl up together for naps on the sofa, and happily pile into laps whenever one is available. Wherever one goes, the other is usually right behind. These two are playful, affectionate, and endlessly curious. Every household chore is a fascinating event, every room is an adventure, and yes… everything is a toy. While they would be over the moon if adopted together, each has shown how quickly they can bond with a fellow like-minded pup. What to expect from either of the pups in this adorable duo: 🐾 Loves to chase, play, and cuddle 🛋️ Professional lap dog who would happily share your bed 🐕 Friendly with other dogs 🎾 Playful and curious about everything happening in the house 🚀 Still learning that coffee tables are not launch pads 🏡 Working on basic manners and house training (still have some puppy energy!) They can be a little nervous with new people, but after about five minutes their sweet personalities shine through and they’re ready to be your new shadows. While it’s not required, it would be wonderful if these two could be adopted together since they are so bonded. If adopted separately, each would do best in a home that already has another playful canine partner in crime. They are currently being fostered in Somerville and are ready to bring double the cuddles, double the laughs, and double the love to their forever family. If you are interested in finding out more about Morgan, please fill out an adoption application by copying and pasting the following link into your browser: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/BRO/Dog Morgan is being fostered in Somerville. 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.
