Tess's Story

Tess is the smallest of her litter of 6 but she has the most love to give! When we open her kennel door she immediately leaps into your arms for pets and kisses. She has such beautiful markings and pretty eyes! She, like the rest of her litter, can be a little insecure at times but she just needs a loving home to help show her the big world and give her lots of love so she can find her confidence. Once she’s comfortable she loves to walk outside with her people and she gets so excited every time she sees one of her litter mates. She’s such a friendly loving little girl that anyone would be lucky to have!<br/><br/>APPROXIMATE WEIGHT: 22 lbs<br/><br/>ESTIMATED DOB: 2/5/26<br/><br/>GOOD WITH OTHER DOGS: yes<br/><br/>GOOD WITH KIDS: yes<br/><br/>GOOD WITH CATS: unknown<br/><br/>REQUIRES A FENCE: no<br/><br/>ACTIVITY LEVEL: med-high<br/><br/>LIKES TO VOCALIZE: some<br/><br/>SPECIAL NEEDS: no<br/><br/>BREED EXPERIENCE NEEDED: no<br/><br/>APPROPRIATE PLACEMENT FOR 1ST TIME DOG OWNER? yes<br/><br/>FREE OBEDIENCE TRAINING IS OFFERED WITH ALL DOG ADOPTIONS<br/><br/>​Please note that we are often asked if dogs are "house trained". The dogs are in fact living in a kennel environment during their time with us. Even if they have previously lived in a home and been trained - the stress of the change and the new home can sometimes cause regression and require some additional training. We feel that it's best for all adopters to be prepared for this possibility.
