Worcester, MA

Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained,
Story
Sunnie here is almost 4 and needs a loving family. No signs of aggression, just a big ol’ baby. She doesn’t do well with other dogs, but loves kids. She’ll brings her toy/ball when she wants to play, zoomies a lot, loves her pets and fetch. She is difficult on the leash (pulls a lot), but does love walks, and loves to play in snow. She has great potential, and she really is the sweetest. She also definitely deserves more in her life. Time is coming fast, and the last thing I want is to bring her to a shelter.

Story
Hi this is Lucy! She is lab mix 10 months old. Her birthday is 4/22/24. She is friendly, gets along well with children, dogs, and her previous owner had a cat and he said they got along. She is fixed and has a chip. I've only had her for about 2 months and unfortunately my senior dogs, 14 and 13 can't keep up with her puppy energy. They are getting to overwhelmed. The reason Im looking to rehome her. She loves to lay by your feet. She really is a sweetheart with amazing beautiful eyes. I just want to make sure Lucys next home will be her forever home.

Story
Fox is a handsome boy who would love to find a home with people who are physically active but also don’t have a busy household indoors. He is aloof when meeting new people, and it does take time to earn his trust. Folks interested in adopting Fox should be relatively local, as he will take more than one meet to give his trust and be ready to finally go home. Fox is looking for a home without children.Fox arrived at WARL extremely underweight and neglected. Fox has gained weight and is starting to feel much better! He enjoys chasing tennis balls and romping with the staff who cares for him, and can’t wait to find a home that can support him. Fox is looking for a home without other dogs or cats, but he will be a great friend to people who appreciate his journey.If you think Fox would be the right fit for your home, please head to our website at www.worcesterarl.org and fill out the Dog Adoption Inquiry Form under his bio. That is the first step! All adoptions are by appointment, thank you.

Story
Ember is a shy girl who would be a great companion! She doesn’t always know how to respond in new situations but is learning to enjoy meeting new people and dogs. Ember would thrive in a home that has previously had dogs and knows how to encourage her.Ember may be able to live with other dogs, but they would have to meet first. If there are to be kids in her new home, they should be teens and older. We have no history of Ember living with cats.If you think Ember might be a great fit for your home please fill out the Dog Adoption Inquiry Form listed under her bio on our website at www.worcesterarl.org.
