Story
MEET TOMMY! (Descriptor: Friendly) This distinguished gentleman is 10 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. January 28, 2025, 8:47 pm

Story
HI! I'M CASS!   I am full of SASS and have even been called CASStastic! I'm a 7 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.

Story
DISCLOSURE: The adoptable pets in our program are still in the care and custody of owners who wish to re-home their pet. Owners have enlisted Rescue Well to provide marketing and screening of applicants as a service, free of charge. All fees and adoption conditions are determined by the owner. We advise that adopters do not send payment or deposits for pets prior to adopting.  ***** Ellie is 6yo, weighs 45lbs, is up to date on her vaccines, is spayed, and is microchipped.  Ellie's guardian offers the following:  "She knows 'quiet' for no barking, 'sit', 'down' for lay down, 'up up' to get into a vehicle/on a bed or sofa/up stairs, and a double tap on your thigh to come here.  Ellie will bark at trucks passing by during walks.  She sometimes gets started by loud noises (thunder, fireworks) but significantly less so these days.  Currently she has free roam in my bedroom during the day.  In our last home she had access to the entire apartment.  Ellie does okay with car rides.  She can become agitated in the car especially if it's a sunny day with a lot of reflected light.  But she handles short drives to the park well.  During several hours drives I tend to give her a melatonin treat." Ellie's guardian explains why he has made the difficult decision to rehome her:   "I am no longer able to financially support her.  Having a dog has made it difficult for me to obtain safe and affordable housing.  She is currently limited to a single bedroom and I am not able to provide her with the home she needs or deserves." Ellie's guardian offers a brief medical history: "She has a few mild health conditions that are easily managed.  She has a zinc deficiency which is easily managed with over the counter zinc pills.  She thinks medication is treats as eats it happily.  She also has acid reflux which is resolved by feeding her 3 times a day.  The vet describes her as a healthy dog.  She has a scar on her back that was there when the shelter found her but it doesn't affect her." Ellie's guardian states the following regarding children:  Although Ellie hasn't lived with children, his guardian recommends her living with children, stating: "Ellie has gotten along well with my cousins who are all over the age of 10.  She has selectively gotten along with children under 6 when going on walks with friends, but due to her size she can be a little scary for small children and has bumped into a 3 year old causing him to loose his balance and fall over." Ellie's guardian states the following regarding dogs:  Ellie hasn't lived with or otherwise been around dogs, so his guardian doesn't recommend her living with dogs, stating: "Ellie tends to bark at other dogs on walks.  She sometimes has been able to friendly greet and meet other dogs.  Other times she's lunged and barked at them. This behavior has significantly decreased over the years I've had her." Ellie's guardian states the following regarding cats:  Ellie hasn't lived with or otherwise been around cats, so his guardian doesn't recommend her living with cats, stating: "Ellie tries to chase stray cats on walks and sometimes barks at them.  She sortly lived in a place with a cat and they were kept on separate floors.  Ellie was very interested in the cat." Ellie's guardian describes her as: Couch potato Playful Friendly Fence Jumper Likes to be touched Affectionate Independent Always at your side House-Trained Crate-Trained Likes men Likes women Ellie's guardian describes her ideal future home: "Ellie loves to be around people. She would be happy to spend her days cuddled up by your side.  She likes long walks and hikes but also does well with 3 short bathroom breaks throughout the day.  She can climb fences so she either needs a tall fence or I keep her on a tether in the back yard.  She likes laying in the sun and people watching so access to a street facing window would be good for her."
