Meet Tessa
Tessa is a bite sized female that is around 40# estimated to be between 2-4 years old. She could stand to gain a few pounds still. Tessa was confiscated during an eviction and was clearly underweight and neglected. This did not stop her from being as sweet as can be and a huge cuddle bug once she gets to know you. Tessa is a lovely little female that loves pets and wants to snuggle all day long. Due to her previous life, Tessa is very undersocialized with people, but she has never met a dog she doesn't like. She romps around the backyard with her three foster brothers like a puppy! When Tessa meets new people she has a big bark and may back away, but she is easily won over with treats and pets. Tessa does well in her crate, but is learning the ins and outs of potty training, accidents are limited to her crate, and are now a rare occurance! Tessa is new to the backyard life and prefers to be walked to go potty, but is figuring out how to be a dog and use the backyard facilities from her foster brothers. Tessa has had no formal training and can be jumpy when seeing people she likes and would love to meet a family that would take her to positive training classes to work on her obedience and confidence.
Tessa's ideal forever home has a social dog that loves to play as much as she does, no small children, and a family committed to her training and learning how good life can be as a loved member of the family.
