Jackson

Jackson is a 12 year old toy poodle who weighs 12 pounds. He came to Brokentail Rescue extremely matted and neglected. He immediately got a hair cut and a nail trim, but his hair will need to be leveled out once it grows in a bit. He mostly sleeps and wants a lap to lounge in. He's a great companion and really loves his people.

Magnus

Magnus is a 1 year old, ~60 pound pit bull mix who is sweet, friendly, and active!

Magnus plays nicely with other playful dogs and even shares his toys. He would be great in a home with older children, but might still be too young and enthusiastic for toddlers.

Sadie

My name is Sadie and I am about 5 years old. I’m a pittie mix (I think!) and really want to be your new best friend. I’m up to date on all my vaccinations, including heart worm and flea/tick and I’m already spayed.

I do OK with dog saavy cats and I’m ok with other dogs that live in my foster home. I love to play and I have so much energy and really want to be on the trails, out running, or going on adventures! The couch might be my new favorite place when I'm in the house though! I would benefit from a quiet home with an experienced owner.

Rufus

Do you like big mutts with huge smiles? If so, I am your man! Weighing in at 85 lbs of love I am the largest lap dog you could ever hope to meet. Yep, you read that right! I just love to sit in my foster dad's lap. It was love at first sight for me.

At just 3 years old, I am in doggie adolescence. Like all adolescents I need patience and consistent training to mature into the awesome dog I am destined to be.

Ariel

In a very dimly lit room, Ariel might be mistaken for a very friendly, slightly chubby bear cub because of her thick black coat. And if you come to visit her bearing a Furminator in hand, she will luxuriate in having her coat brushed. This sweet, zaftig, easy-going girl is 7 years old and doesn't appear to have a hiss or growl in her (despite losing her home after an unpleasant divorce).

Mini Winnie

Mini Winnie is a tiny little bundle of personality. She takes some time to warm up to new people, but once she does, she melts into a puddle of gooey affection. She loves being around her human and follows me from room to room. Once I sit down, she is immediately in my lap, kneading, purring and suckling on my clothes. She doesn't get along with my resident cat, but did get along with a cat at a previous foster home. She is a good eater, but isn't very food motivated. She does have gorgeous, long, and incredibly soft fur. We've given her a lion cut for the summer, and she will probably require regular grooming to keep her coat clean and downy-soft.

JoJo

Do you (mistakenly) think that all cats are aloof creatures who play hard to get? Not JoJo! This friendly, affectionate, Tuxedo (black-and-white) girl would just as soon climb onto your lap and gently butt your hand until you give her the pets and lovins that she's dreaming of. JoJo is about 7 years old and sadly, lost her home (where she lived with another cat) as the result of divorce.

Zane

Zane is a great guy! He takes a little while to warm up to new people, but once he trusts you, it’s all pets, purrs, and cheek scratches. He can’t get enough. He's got a luxuriously soft coat that is a pleasure to pet.
