nally a stray, Orville was brought to the Baltimore County Animal Services where he wooed everyone he met with his take-charge-and-names little-dog attitude. As a trusted partner of the shelter, Tara’s House was asked to find him the perfect home that understands what it’s like to be a little grumbly-yet-sweet dog in a big world. Orville has been enjoying a life of leisure since he was whisked off in early February to his new foster home. There he has been pampered and doted on, while waiting to be unveiled to the world. His foster parents report that he has tons of energy but also loves to cuddle up with you on the couch. They have been able to teach him commands like sit, come, down and stay. He is super motivated by treats and always wants to please you. He does well in showers but not so much when it’s time to get his teeth brushed. He loves to go on car rides and run around outside, so a fenced yard would be ideal for him. He has shown interest in social interactions with other dogs, but of course he wants humans that cater to his every whim! Cats are fickle and unpredictable, but we (naively?) predict that they may be able to adjust to life together after a slow introduction. Orville is growly when you pet him at first, but the more often you do it the more he warms up to you. He must go to a home with no children under the age of 16, and any kids in the home must understand how to be respectful of a small dog. A home with Yorkie experience is ideal, and overall he is a super smart dog that would benefit from a family that can see his full potential and continue working with him on behavioral training. Orville’s adoption donation fee is $425, which includes spay/neuter, routine vetting and a microchip. You can apply for Orville by filling out our online application, which is found on our website .tarashouse. Please email us at infotarashouse with any questions.

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
