No Want To Know More About Me? Text TARA to 864-441-9075 for my full story, photos, and videos — we’ll share everything you need to know! Please note — if you want to skip the text and go straight to the application, you can find the link here: www.carolinapoodlerescue.org/application/ Here’s Your Quick Peek: Please Note: Carolina Poodle Rescue requires a meet and greet where everyone living in the home - all people and all dogs - will come to our farm to meet dogs. This is non-negotiable. Please do not apply if you and your family can't make this commitment. Tara is a LAP DOG. Not a dog who occasionally enjoys sitting in your lap. Not a dog who might climb up beside you if the mood strikes. Tara believes laps were invented specifically for her. She is an extraordinarily affectionate, snuggly little girl who has spent her life being loved, cherished and cared for — and she would very much like that arrangement to continue, please. Tara came into Sheila’s life as a tiny four-week-old Morkie puppy. Noel, Sheila’s older CPR dog, became Tara’s mentor, security blanket and best friend. The girls have been together ever since, and when Sheila’s health failed, her request was that they remain together. We agree. Tara and Noel will be adopted as a pair. Must have: Noel. These two girls are family, and they are going home together. Exercise: Low to moderate. Tara enjoys getting out and about, but her favorite destination is still going to be your lap. Best with: Someone who genuinely wants a companion dog close by. A retired person or couple who is home often and has plenty of love to give would be absolutely wonderful for Tara and Noel. They don’t need a busy social calendar. They need people who want company — because these girls have plenty of it to give. Not ideal for: A home where dogs are expected to be independent or spend most of the day by themselves. Tara wants a relationship with her people, preferably at extremely close range. Energy level: Low to moderate. Tara is younger than Noel and has a little more pep, but she is not looking for an athletic career. Her primary occupation is companionship. Tara has been very well loved and well cared for throughout her life. Her veterinary records show consistent preventive care and regular dental care. She had another routine dental cleaning in June 2026 and is not currently on any daily medication. Good with dogs: Yes. Tara has lived happily with Noel for years and is comfortable with canine companionship. Good with kids: Unknown. Tara is a small, affectionate dog, so we would want children who understand how to be gentle and respectful with little dogs. Cats: Untested, but we would be happy to introduce her to cats and see what she thinks. Fun fact: Tara’s definition of personal space is simple: if there is room between you and Tara, Tara intends to fix that. We think Noel and Tara could be absolutely wonderful companions for someone retired or home much of the time who is looking for two little dogs to share the quiet parts of life with. Noel brings the gentle, steady presence. Tara brings the snuggles. Lots and lots of snuggles. These girls have spent years being loved. We are looking for someone who wants to pick up where Sheila had to leave off — and love them the rest of the way home.
