Tessie's Story

*Please include your ***PHONE NUMBER*** in your email to TheLongWayHomeRescue@gmail.com for a faster response! TY!<br/><br/>Tessie and siblings are SWEETHEARTS and very gentle natured. They have the most beautiful markings, coloration, and the perfect personalities!<br/><br/>They like playing with our other foster pups. They're super smart and have already learned how to "sit," walk on a leash, and "wait."<br/><br/>They were found by a lady in a man's yard while looking for her lost dog. He agreed to let her help them by bringing them to us. One of the girl pups appeared to have a broken leg!<br/><br/>She reported they were very thin, appeared weak, and in low-spirits. <br/>They were covered from head to toe in ticks and fleas... causing amenia and intestinal parasites. They have been treated and are thriving!<br/><br/>I removed approximately 400 ticks from their ears, face, neck mostly and whole body. They slept the whole night after their bath and dinner-- I really think they knew they were safe with us!<br/><br/>They were very gentle and good in the grooming tub. All of them love to follow me around and are great listeners!<br/><br/>Each pup will make someone an incredible friend and will offer great companionship! They're very gentle with our kids.<br/><br/>I've never seen puppies so appreciative as these pups were to be safe in our rescue and receiving unconditional love and much needed vet care.
