Hagrid

"Hi, I'm Hagrid! Who are you? We are going to be friends, I just know it."

If Hagrid could talk, this is how he would introduce himself to new people, human and feline alike. It never occurs to him that he might be hissed at or be overlooked. Why waste time with silly things like when there are toys to play with and bellies to be rubbed. Hagrid is a self-confident, friendly 10-month old boy who likes other cats and humans without reservation. He's a big fan of falling asleep in your arms, but he is still all kitten. Check out his gravity-defying leaps in the video as a demonstration of his youthful energy.

Wednesday

Wednesday is a gorgeous seven year old female tortoiseshell. She gets along well with other cats and kids but we aren't sure how she would do with dogs. She's a very sweet cat who is a bit of a couch potato.

Fiona

Fiona is a four year old, sixty (60) pound pittie mix who is joyfully waiting for her "furever home". Fiona's loves in life include carrying around her stuffed animals, posing in cozy holiday sweaters, and playing with other dogs. In her current foster home Fiona enjoys running around with the large, goofy resident male pittie. Her ideal home would have a similarly sized, and similarly energized companion so she can continue to play, play, play!

Jack

My name is Jack. I am estimated to be 8 years old and weigh about 15 pounds. I am a very sweet dog who loves to be with people and play with my ball!

I'm new to Broken Tail and hopefully I'll find a furever home soon! My foster mom and I are just starting to get acquainted, but I am housebroken and love to follow my foster family around the house. I'm friendly with people including kids and I enjoy playing with other dogs.

Murphy

Meet handsome Murphy! Murphy is a five-year-old, sixty (60) pound Mastiff pittie mix who is as adorable as he is photogenic!

Murphy is a charmer who makes fast friends with everyone he meets; truly Murphy loves all people. His tail is always wagging so he would do best in a home with children ten and older who won't be knocked down by the enthusiastic love for life his swishing tail shows. Though Murphy enjoys the company of other dogs, he can be initially shy, and need some time to warm up to them.

Seeley

Seeley is a cuddly and gorgeous two year old dog, and all he wants to do is be loved and show his human companions that he loves them back. He loves people from the moment he meets them. In fact, there's not much that he DOESN'T love; he even went back for thirds when he first tried lime juice! If you give the guy an ice cube, he'll freak out for a few seconds and then munch it right down.

Jack The Beanstalk

Meet Jack the Beanstalk. Jack is approximately 12 years old and weighs around 35 lbs. He is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and on preventative for heartworm and flea/tick. He is cat and dog friendly, unknown with small kids but would probably do well with respectful kids. He has been in rescue for only a short time but so far he has been a great boy. He is well behaved, quiet, mellow, and low energy but he LOVES his walks.
