Tessa arrived at the shelter struggling with badly injured back legs, but regular pain management has given her a new spark and restored her ability to walk and explore. She does best in homes with minimal or no stairs, but she can move around, go for walks, and even jog without help. Energetic and people-focused, Tessa looks forward to long walks and delights in attention from her person and visitors alike. She’s crate trained when you’re away, and she’ll give you a joyful welcome when you return. Tessa enjoys frequent walks but also knows how to settle in for a long nap, sleeping soundly through the night. With proper walk routines each day, house training isn't an issue. She is happiest as the only animal in the home, where she can show her best side without competition. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
