Meet Tara - A beautiful Eight Month-Old Golden doodle Looking for Her Forever Home.
She weighs 33# and still needs to gain a little weight.
Tara and her sister were found abandoned on a rural Missouri gravel road. They were very thin, very dirty and covered in ticks, with open wounds to their paw pads. They had clearly been fending for themselves for some time. After much needed TLC, and great vet care, Tara is ready to find her forever home.
Tara is delightful with a heart full of love and a gentle spirit. She is incredibly sweet but will be timid and shy at first, so she will need a patient family willing to give her time to warm up and feel safe. Tara is doing great with potty training and has not had an accident in a long time. She will need time to adjust and learn the new schedule at her new home. She has a wonderful temperament with other animals, adoring both dogs and cats. In fact, she would thrive best in a home with another friendly dog to play with and help build her confidence. A fenced yard would be ideal for Tara to explore and enjoy, but initially, she will need to be taken out on a leash until she becomes comfortable in her new surroundings.
Tara is okay in the car, although she may feel a bit scared during the journey. With time and happy experiences she will learn to love car rides.
She is learning all about being a loved dog and is starting to play with toys and her dog friends. She loves to snuggle in bed at night.
If you are looking for a loving companion and are willing to invest a little time and patience, Tara will reward you with endless affection and loyalty. Could you be the perfect match for this sweet girl?
Tara is being fostered in St Clair Mo
Her adoption fee is $325

Additional adoption info
We want to make this easy and we want to be sure that the dog you are interested in is a fit for you. Finding a dog or pup that works with your schedule and lifestyle is key to our placement. The questions on the application help us know if the dog you choose will do well in your home. Number of hours your dog is home alone, fenced yard, exercise plan, other family members – pets included; those are important things we want to discuss with you and your chosen canine. We do require a vet reference.
The application is on our website: Istodaymydayrescue.org. Complete and send. You can expect a reply within 24-48 hours. As all of our dogs are in foster care, we will then contact the foster home and arrange a meeting. The foster home might want to do a home visit or you might meet at a convenient location. If it is a good fit, some adoptions can be completed at that time of the meeting.
If your pup is under 4 pounds or an extra large breed at the age we typically alter our dogs, she or he might need to wait to be altered until the pup reaches a more appropriate age. This is to ensure that the pup is large enough to undergo anesthesia and old enough to not stunt the puppy's growth. If so, we will ask you to sign a spay/neuter contract. We will refer you to a low cost spay neuter program in your area. Sixty dollars will be reimbursed when the procedure is completed.
All of our dogs are micro chipped, wormed, heartworm tested if over 6 months, on heartworm preventative, treated for fleas, and have age appropriate vaccines. Pups under 16 weeks require ongoing vaccines every 2 to 3 weeks.

More about this rescue
“Is today my day?” That is what every shelter dog asks. “Is today the day that I find a home, get a family, discover that I am a best friend”? We want to tell those dogs: “Yes, it is!”
We are a foster based rescue who aims to serve south central Missouri, an area with a low human population and a high canine population. Our mission is to help dogs from this area find homes in the St. Louis area through adoptions and transfers. After covering spay/neuter costs, 20% of each adoption fee goes to our emergency medical fund so we can help canine accident victims, pay for emergency C-sections, and other health needs. The remainder of the adoption fee goes to the dogs.
We are foster based and do not have a facility. Moms and pups are our focus, but we will help any dog we can. We are only able to accept a dog when a foster home is available. All dogs and pups are current on vaccines, micro-chipped, heartworm tested, wormed, and treated for fleas and ticks. All dogs over 12 weeks have been altered; if too young for this procedure, a spay/neuter reimbursement is provided when the procedure is done.
