Tara's House Animal Rescue, Inc.

Tara's House is a private, not-for-profit, 501(c)(3) organization based in Columbia and Silver Spring, Maryland. Our mission is to rescue and then provide care and compassion for our pets while working to place them, through a competitive adoption process, in permanent, loving homes. We are a high-placement organization and we rescue our pets primarily from high-kill shelters with no funding for their own adoption programs. We receive no government funding of any kind, and therefore operate solely on private donations, adoption fees and volunteer efforts.

Meet Sulley

MEET SULLEY! Sulley is a gentle, sweet, and calm dog who has 5 happy years under his belt. He weighs approximately 55 pounds and is an easy-to-care-for, low-energy fellow. A graduate of Ridgeside K9 Central MD, Sulley is already fully trained! Always welcome at Ridgeside, Sulley is awaiting his new home with his trainers after his former owners became too busy to care for him after having a (human) baby. Sulley is completely house trained, leash trained, and crate trained (although his former owners never needed to use one). In the years with his owners Sulley never had a single accident nor did he ever get on the furniture or destroy anything. Sulley would thrive in a quiet/stable household with no young kids where he can peacefully nap, sunbathe, and provide companionship to his humans. Sulley has not lived with another pet, but with proper introductions and time he could likely adjust to the new circumstance. Sulley is low energy and either enjoys short walks or a run around a fenced in backyard and knows (and abides by) all basic commands.  Sulley shows no separation anxiety, never barks, and is friendly with new people he meets. Sulley would be a wonderful companion for someone who appreciates a peaceful and nurturing relationship with their dog.  Sulley’s adoption donation fee is $400, which includes neuter, routine vetting and a microchip. You can apply for Sulley by filling out our online application, which is found on our website www.tarashouse.org.  Please email us at [email protected] with any questions.

If your adoption application was submitted in person during a monthly adoption show, we will review your application and conduct the initial interview in person on the spot. 3) Reference Check •A Tara's House representative will call all references, especially your vet and landlord (if applicable), if we wish to proceed with your application after the initial review. 4) The Home Visit •If Tara's House finds all references give positive feedback and every other requirement has been met to this phase of our process, one of our Adoption Committee members will contact you to arrange a brief home visit. We will ask you to demonstrate a day in the life of your potential adopted dog and evaluate the environment and conditions for the dog. 5) Adoption Approval •After the home visit, our Adoption Committee convenes - usually virtually - to discuss your application and lessons learned as we worked through each phase of our process. From this collaborative review, our Adoption Committee will make the final decision on your application and inform you of their decision in short order. •If you are approved to adopt a Tara's House dog, you must sign and submit to Tara's House our legally binding adoption contract along with our adoption fee in the amount of $270-$375, depending on the dog (payable by check made to Tara's House), as well as pick your new dog from the applicable foster home within three days following our notification that you have been approved, unless we have notified you that other arrangements to pick up the dog will be made.
