Original: Tara is a sweet little springer pup who has been a dream to foster according to her foster mom. Tara is housebroken and crate trained, although the crate is not her favorite place to be. She is very affectionate, and loves being with people. Also, she is very good with the resident Springer. Tara knows “sit” and “give kisses” which are very important commands for a little sweetheart to know. She rides well in the car, too. Her foster mom crates her in the car, but she settles quickly and stays quiet.
Excited to get out and see the world, Tara pulls on the leash, but her foster parents are working on that. Since she is very smart, her foster mom is sure Tara will get the hang of it quickly. Tara’s house manners are very nice. She doesn’t beg for food or counter-surf. In her prior home, she was allowed on the furniture and slept on the bed, but she doesn’t object at all when asked to get off by her foster family. When it comes to grooming, Tara was perfectly okay with having her foster mom clean her ears and trim the hair between her pads. The most negative thing her foster family can find to say about her is that she’s a very messy drinker!!
Don’t let water puddles by Tara’s water bowl stop you from thinking about this lovely Springer girl becoming a member of your family!
