A fabulous candidate for a family or first dog, Cinnamon is a ~7 year old, 60 lb, hidden gem of a gal. One of the sensational seniors ready to learn your routine and settle down for pets and treats, Cinnamon is truly deserving of her very own home. Read what her short-term foster had to say about her lovely stay:
'On the ride bringing Cinnamon home, she was quiet and politely sitting in the backseat. She had no issue getting into the car and initially was shy but nevertheless very friendly, trusting, and well behaved for the car ride.
“At home Cinnamon took to exploring right away, her bubbly personality came out and she was grinning ear to ear as she discovered each room of the house. She wasn’t crated because she was with me at all times and an excellent co-pilot. She is an even better cuddler who will also respectfully sleep at your feet through the night. Cinnamon loves a good squeaky stuffed toy and enjoys playing fetch indoors to get your attention. She did not express any signs of resource guarding and whilst tussling for a toy she will graciously lose the tug-o-war, especially if that means you will throw the toy for her again.
“I don’t recall her ever barking, possibly once when a package was dropped off, but naturally I applauded her for the notification. Cinnamon was never territorial or nervous waiting in the car and was complemented constantly on her looks and behavior as we strolled through places such as Tractor Supply. You can get Cinnamon excited and playful and then you can ask her to 'settle' and she will do just that, she even took a nap waiting next to me in the vet lobby.
“Cinnamon was always friendly and polite with new people she met in passing. From the first interaction, Cinnamon was always calm with my rabbit who enjoyed going up to say hello through his cage door and showed little interest when I brought my rabbit out for pets.
“Cinnamon was a treat to walk on a leash whilst greeting passing neighbors and their dogs from across the road. Cinnamon has excellent recall in the yard and did not pursue nearby squirrels or deer. However, she never missed an opportunity to roll in a fluffy pile of leaves.
“Overall Cinnamon is an easy going dog who loves life and is proud to stay by your side. She is a seasoned older sidekick who is confident with surroundings and will happily relax while you focus on what you are doing. Cinnamon will happily surrender her stomach to be pet and does not mind some feet tickling or paw pad inspection. Lastly, even with some courtesy peanut butter, she will stand politely to be bathed. She has never had an accident in the house, and adapts well with a sporadic schedule. Truly a hidden gem of a dog, Cinnamon would make an excellent addition to be a first dog for a family or individual.'

More about this rescue
Tara’s House is a private, nonprofit, 501(c)(3) organization. Our mission is to rescue and provide care and compassion for our pets while working to place them in permanent, loving homes. The pets we rescue arrive at Tara's House from rural, high kill shelters with little to no funding for their own adoption programs. These shelters rely on Tara's House and other rescues to save these adoptable pets from certain euthanasia. It is a sad fact - pets find their way to shelters through no fault of their own. Today, many are innocent victims of the current financial crisis; families simply cannot afford to keep them. We believe in giving these shelter pets a second chance. At Tara's House, we provide our pets with the vet care and love that they need to thrive. We then help them find "furever" homes. We receive no government funding; we operate solely on private donations and volunteer efforts. With 4-5 million pets euthanized in the United States each year, our team of volunteers is dedicated to helping those pets that we can, and to making a positive impact in the life of each pet we rescue. Please - opt to adopt!
