Tara Darling

Tara Darling breeds Irish water spaniels and Sussex spaniels in Georgetown, SC, Coastal South Carolina near Charleston. She has been an active member of the American Kennel Club’s breeders’ program for more than eight years, conducting regular health screenings and genetic testing on each litter. Puppies are raised in a family home, socialized daily with children and other pets, and introduced early to basic obedience and leash training.

The Sussex spaniels thrive in spacious outdoor play areas, while the curly coats of Irish water spaniels are kept in healthy condition through a balanced diet and weekly grooming. Many puppies have gone on to compete in local hunt tests and search-and-rescue training, reflecting a focus on temperament as well as form. Tara Darling values transparency, sharing detailed lineage records and veterinary reports with prospective families. Clients often mention the calm disposition and robust health of their new companions.
