My story

Supporters and Recurring Giving Donors will be put on our VIP Application List &#226&#128&#139 Adoption Costs and other important information. ALICE IS NOT in our shelter but in foster for Broken Tail Rescue - interested in learning more about her? Pls contact Joy at  Email  info@brokentailrescue.org Phone (508) 494-0963 Say hello to Alice, a 9-month-old Bull Terrier mix who’s 28 pounds of pure puppy joy and ears that may or may not double as satellite dishes. She’s sweet, she’s bouncy, and she’s got that classic “I’m ready to take on the world” puppy energy—and then some. Alice is the kind of pup who: Hikes like a champ – Off-leash? No problem. She loves hitting the trails with her dog pals and frolicking like nature’s very own energizer bunny. Eager to learn – She’s a smart cookie who wants to please her people (and maybe score a treat or three). Kid-approved – She’s sweet and snuggly with kids and would happily let them serve as cuddle buddies and snack distributors. Play-mode always ON – She’s very puppyish and playful, which is adorable… unless you're an older dog trying to retire in peace. If your dog is more “nap enthusiast” than “tag champion,” they might find Alice’s energy a bit much. Alice is still learning the ropes and definitely needs training—she’s got all the potential and just needs someone patient to help shape it! Now, here’s the twist in Alice’s puppy tale: during her spay appointment, the vet discovered she has a very loud heart murmur. She had heart surgery in May for pulmonary stenosis at Tufts in Grafton, MA and has recovered beautifully! Once she is spayed on 8/14 Alice can officially start her next chapter. Now we're on the search for someone who can give Alice the love and care she deserves.  Alice has a heart that needed a little help, but she’s making up for lost time with every tail wag and goofy zoomie. If you’re ready to open your home (and heart) to this lovable whirlwind of joy, Alice is ready to bounce right in.  Adoption Costs and other important information. Supporters and Recurring Giving Donors will be put on our VIP Application List &#226&#128&#139 August 16, 2025, 3:28 pm
