About Tessa
Tessa is a sweet, gentle soul who is just beginning to find her confidence in a new world. At only 4 months old, she weighs around 15 pounds and has lived through a lot in her young life; she was rescued from a Louisiana shelter alongside her siblings. Now, in her loving foster home, she is learning to trust and thrive with calm routines and steady encouragement. This charming Black Labrador Retriever mix is still shy, especially around new people and situations. Tessa needs a patient family willing to provide her the time she requires to bond. She responds well to soft voices and gentle guidance, and she's already using a pet door for potty breaks. With the right family, Tessa will blossom and become a cherished companion. She’s comfortable with dogs, cats, and children, making her an ideal choice for a family with a flexible lifestyle. Tessa will need a home that can provide a calm environment, no crating, and some occasional puppy pen time. She’s fully vaccinated and microchipped, though she’s not spayed yet based on veterinary recommendations for larger breeds. An interested adopter can sign a spay agreement and may be eligible for a $100 rebate after the procedure. This playful girl has lots of love to give and is ready for a kind-hearted family.
