Tara, the Dog of the Day
Name: Tara
Age: Twelve and a half years old
Gender: Female Breed: Golden Retriever, Chow Chow mix
Home: Frederick, Maryland, USA
 
   I was three years old when my mom brought home this lovable puppy from work one day. She is one out of a litter of five. A lady who worked with my mom was giving them away because her husband would not allow her to keep them. The other four puppies were barking and tearing things up, but Tara crawled into my moms lap and almost cuddled a hole into my mom's stomach. My mom fell in love with her right there and took her home, and Tara has been with us ever since.

    Tara was eleven years old in this picture, which was taken last year at our home in South Carolina. She is our pride and joy. She is mellow, and has never bitten anyone in her entire life. She loves everyone and she is so special to us and we love her more than anything. She is the best pet anyone could ever have.
