Story
Notes from her foster: Trooper has all the makings of a perfect dog! She is incredibly easy to live with and is extremely lovable. Trooper, or Roo Roo, is a simple gal whose favorite things are napping in a spot of sunshine and playing with chew and tug toys. With daily exercise, she's a couch walrus most of the time, and will either snuggle up with her person or find a cozy spot on her own. Troops enjoys daily walks in the morning and evening. She can be energetic on walks and we suspect she could be a good running partner with some training. Using a harness is very helpful for reducing pulling. Once she uses some energy, she walks very nicely. Continued training for leash walking would be helpful. She is fully housebroken and will ask to go out with quiet whining. She also "asks" to play by whining or doing the cutest little howling song. Maybe she could learn to sing? Troopy likes tug games with her person and will chase a ball for a brief time, and then she will "steal" the toy to play with on her own. She also likes durable chew toys and takes them very nicely from our hands. Though Trooper is extremely sociable and affectionate, she also does great being alone. She is crated when we are out, which she does with ease, especially when she gets her favorite treat for going in. When we are home, she will roam freely and sometimes even puts herself to bed when she's tired. Troopy's biggest challenge right now is her strong reactions to seeing other animals, especially through a barrier like a window or fence. This is understandable given her time in the shelter and has already started to improve while in foster. She will bark, whine, jump and lunge when she sees other creatures and it can be intense, though it ends quickly. This is much better when she is on a leash walk outside, but she still does get very excited by other furry critters. This is manageable through distraction and maintaining distance between her and other animals. A home in a lower-density environment would be helpful, especially as she learns new self-regulation skills. With continued love and opportunities for learning, Ms. Trooper would be the perfect pal for either a new or seasoned dog family. We love her SO MUCH and can't wait for her to find a warm, happy forever home.

Story
Meet Leica also known as Ash! Ash is a sweet and loving pup who makes a fantastic family dog. She adores kids, cuddling on the couch, and getting all the rubs she can. This car-ride enthusiast loves to stick her head out the window and enjoy the breeze on every adventure! Ash is crate trained and housebroken, and she's a quick learner, especially when treats are involved-she's very food motivated! She knows commands like *sit* (with a hand gesture), *stop*, *no*, and *come on*, making her a joy to train. While Ash loves people, she can be a little shy at first. She's also a bit cautious but curious around other dogs. Her ideal day involves spending time indoors (her favorite place to be!), lounging with her family, and carrying around socks. Yes, socks! Ash has a funny habit of picking them up and proudly carrying them around, but don't worry-she doesn't eat them! One quirk to know: Ash is scared of the vacuum and will dash to another room when it's turned on. If you're looking for a loyal, cuddly companion who's great with kids and loves to be part of the family, Ash might be your perfect match!

Story
Meet Herman the Worm (formerly Dallas): Your New Adventure Buddy! Herman the Worm is a spirited and playful young dog with energy to spare. This high-energy boy knows basic commands like sit, stay, and down and is working on paw and focus. He shares his home with a lively 4-year-old, and while their high-energy antics often result in fun, Herman's exuberance can occasionally knock the little one over. For this reason, he might do best with older children who can handle his enthusiasm. Herman thrives in social settings with other dogs and enjoys regular playdates with a husky, a pitbull, and a bulldog at a large fenced-in area near his apartment. Whether it's tug-of-war or chasing after balls, Herman shares toys beautifully and relishes every moment of canine camaraderie. With strangers, his excitement to make new friends is boundless, but he quickly settles with a bit of patience and calm introductions. Housebroken and attentive, Herman communicates his bathroom needs by curling his tail upward and heading to the door. However, he's not shy about letting you know if you're taking too long! A fan of three meals of dry adult dog food a day (wet food isn't his thing), Herman stays happy and healthy. He's a quiet companion who doesn't bark, and when it's time to wind down, he's the ultimate cuddle buddy. Whether he's snuggling on the couch or chewing on a bone while you clean, Herman is as loving as he is active. This affectionate, well-mannered pup is ready to bring his boundless energy and big heart to his forever home.

Lyla is our 5-year- old treasure that I rescued several years ago. She’s a very affectionate and loyal sweetheart who wants to be loved at all times. Lyla is a very active companion but also enjoys just lounging around the house while in good company. The reason I’m re-homing Lyla is because I will be deploying for 1-2 years and cannot take her with me.

Story
Meet Midnight - your new snuggle buddy! He is a smart pup that's eager to learn new tricks and please his pawrents. He knows his basic commands and tries to take advantage of "rollover" by stopping halfway for belly rubs. Midnight loves taking walks and has minimal leash pulling. Unfortunately, Midnight and our resident dog just aren’t meshing and we’ve made the tough decision to rehome. He just received all of his annual vaccines, he's neutered, and microchipped. Meaning all he needs is a loving home to call his own! Please reach out if you'd like to meet Midnight to see if he's the right fit for you.

Story
MEET TOMMY! (Descriptor: Friendly) This distinguished gentleman is 7 years old and weighs in at a solid 70 lbs. (He may be a little vertically challenged and a tad rotund, but he’s approaching his golden years so who’s judging?) Tommy came to us as part of our community outreach program when his person passed away. Since he's been in our care, Tommy has become our unofficial mascot. He is friendly, sweet, and beautifully trained.  Tommy plays well with male and female dogs around his size but would be perfectly content to curl up at your feet (or next to you on the couch…what a treat that would be!) and just be your guy all by himself.  Tommy is a calm and laid back dog and loves to sun himself in the yard or take walkies in the lane or in the woods. He will occasionally pull on his leash, but we remind him to be 'easy', and he comes back to the side of his handler. Tommy knows all of his commands, and when you tell him 'down,' he will solicit a belly rub. If you really want to make Tommy sing, give him a bum scratch and you’ll be friends for life! We adore Tommy and think as far as mascots go, he's the bestest boy. We also think he deserves a home where he can live out his senior years with a chill family that matches his (relatively low) energy level. Steps may be a problem for him in the future, so a rancher style home may be ideal. Tommy’s adoption donation fee is $350, which includes spay/neuter, routine vetting and a microchip. You can apply for Tommy 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. October 21, 2024, 8:45 pm

Story
HI! I'M CASS!   I am full of SASS and have even been called CASStastic! I'm a 5 year old, 64 lb, spayed pit bull mix who enjoys the finer things in life. My ideal human will let me snuggle on the couch and sleep in bed with you. You will also rub my belly whenever I give you the 'look' with my soft brown eyes. You will also live in a rural area with a fenced in yard that preferably doesn't back up to any other property and doesn't have access to other animals entering the yard. I've never been exposed to children, so maybe yours are grown?    Like many beauties my age, I have a fear of missing out, and if I think something is happening that I don't know about, I get hyper-focused, as my trainer calls it. My trainer said this means it's hard for me to listen to her when I'd rather focus on a squirrel. Or a leaf. Or a deer. Or a bumble bee. I know many commands and am eager to learn and listen. We are still working on my leash skills, because I get “hyper-focused,” but my trainer says I am now walking on a loose leash more than 50% of the time! I am improving!   I love my toys, soft blankets, and playing in the sprinkler. When I see the sprinkler, I smile so hard and show my adorable crooked bottom teeth!    As well as basic obedience, I am house-broken and crate trained and know my crate is my special spot. I am very treat-motivated, and while I do gently accept treats as a positive reinforcement, I don't like anyone to watch me when I eat my meals. It’s ok to watch me eat treats, though. To keep me working on my focusing and leash skills, a very nice human sponsored 7 training classes with my trainer to keep me going in the right direction! I am truly CASStastic and will be the best dog I can be!   Cass’s adoption donation fee is $375, which includes spay/neuter, routine vetting and a microchip. You can apply for Cass by filling out our online application, which is found on our website www.tarashouse.net or www.tarashouse.org.
