Story
The Melder!MEET FLASH!    Don’t miss out on this gem of a dog! Around a year old, spayed, house broken, and crate trained. Flash is a designer mutt, with some possible combination of Belgian Malinois (maybe!), shepherd (maybe!), Kelpie (maybe!), and a pinch of pit (maybe!). The rest is anyone’s guess. She’s about 48 pounds, though a bit underweight from her time on the street. Yes, that’s right, Flash was found living in the wilds of Frederick, MD, fending for herself until she was taken in by Tara’s House.   Flash is super loving and quickly bonds to her people. She’s been great with kids and adults alike. She does take a few minutes to warm up to new people, but a few well-placed treats do the trick. We call her The Melder, because if it were up to her, she would cozy up to you and meld herself to you! You bend down to give some pets and pretty soon you’re on the floor with a dog in your lap, which is about the greatest thing ever.   Flash is the perfect age–past the shark-puppy phase, but young enough to be super goofy. She tosses balls for herself and has short puppy fits running up and down stairs and parkouring that will have you rolling on the floor laughing at her antics. Her coat is short and silky soft. She doesn’t shed a whole lot. Flash is athletic and can clear 4' fences...but she seems only interested in escaping if one of her people is on the other side of that fence. Despite being athletic and somewhat high energy, Flash does just fine with moderate walks and activity.   She has done great with another dog in the house–she plays hard and loves to wrestle. She walks well on a leash and with another dog. She doesn’t pull aggressively, but she does get distracted by squirrels (so suspicious!) and dogs down the block (Do they want to play? Do they? Do they?) and will need a little urging to move along. If you keep a brisk pace, she matches it well.  Anyone considering Flash for their pack should expect to do some consistent training to get her all the way to Perfect Pup status. But it won’t take long, because Flash is very smart, picks up cues easily, and is motivated by treats.   Flash’s adoption donation fee is $450, which includes spay/neuter, routine vetting and a microchip. You can apply for her by filling out our online application, which is found on our website www.tarashouse.org.  Please email us at info@tarashouse.net with any questions.May 4, 2026, 12:00 pm

Story
Lucca is an 8-year-old Belgian Malinois (turning 9 in September) that I adopted in 2019. She is incredibly intelligent, loyal, and emotionally aware, and she bonds closely with her person. She thrives in an environment with structure, attention, and consistent mental and physical engagement. Lucca has a strong personality and does best as the only pet in the home, where she can receive focused attention. I am looking for an experienced owner familiar with working breeds (Malinois, German Shepherd, etc.) who understands their needs and can provide daily exercise, engagement, and leadership. Due to my current workload, health considerations, and time constraints, I’m no longer able to give her the level of attention she needs to truly thrive. This decision is about finding her the right environment.

Story
Shadow (7months old) came from a purebred breeder. She is friendly with humans and does great at the dog park (I’ve taken her many times and she never has bitten anyone, plays wonderfully with all dogs small and big)Unfortunately I need hip replacement surgery which will leave me immobile for 4-5 months. I didn’t anticipate this and there is just no way I can raise this beautiful puppy, now 7 months old, while I’m unable to walk even for months.Shadow likes to have a lot of space in the backyard and home. She is the most loving pup with a defense nature to guard the house. She has progressed wonderfully with her training to be potty and pad trained, to walk without pulling (heal) when using a nose lead, sit, lay down, back up, stay, and is capable of learning so much more. I’ve also taught her attack using a toy and also drop it to let go. She is very food motivated to learnAny physically active owner who is able to love her as much as I do is needed.

Story
Coco and Chica (aka Coco Bean and Chica Boom) are two very good girls who deserve a great life. These sisters were found as <12 week old puppies living together, w/o their mother, in the streets in the Caribbean. Despite starving, they each usually wore (and still wear) the closest thing to a smile with dimples I’ve ever seen on a dog’s face. They were rescued & brought to the US in April of '25 as fosters. I have had them since as I continue to look for their forever home.The girls are very bonded.These girls are sweet and funny:Coco likes to lie on her side and pretend to run her legs, going nowhere. She loves loves and sniffing.Chica will tunnel under Coco, lift her off the ground and walk her around on her back. Coco loves a ball and playing fetch above all else.Smart and assured, they have a lot of promise for any kind of training.1 or both available

Story
Cletus is an easy going, adorable male Golden Retriever/Lab mix, born on October 12, 2024. He is a good family member, crate-trained and mostly house-trained with some support in his new home.

Story
We got Coco from the Prince George's County Humane Society in Upper Marlboro, MD. Coco is around 4 to 5 years old. We are hoping to find someone who will give her daily walks, brushing, and lots of love. She is a little afraid of people and large crowds, but does well with a small family. She is very sweet, calm, loves walks, affection, and attention. She will bark if someone is at the door or when she wants to come inside; otherwise, she is pretty quiet. We would love to keep her, but there is a new baby, and with working, there is not enough time to give her the attention she needs.

Story
Nelson is a 2-year-old, loving and loyal dog we first fostered and then adopted. He is fully vaccinated and has completed 3 weeks of obedience training, he knows sit, stay, place, leave it, paw, and “let’s go.” He attend Doggy Daycare 2-3 times a week. He is a sweet, well-behaved boy who thrives on companionship and will happily follow you from room to room. He enjoys long walks and does best with structure, consistency, and continued reinforcement of his training. Due to a shift in lifestyle and increased travel, I am no longer able to give Nelson the time he needs. Nelson would do best as the only pet in the home. He does not do well with cats and should be in a home without other animals as he likes to be the center of attention. His ideal home is with someone who has time, patience, and can provide consistency, love, and routine.
