Tessa is a delightful 6-year-old, 88-pound spayed female Labrador Retriever looking for a loving home. She thrives on human companionship and has been a cherished part of her family, which includes two teenagers, for the past two years. Unfortunately, with recent compatibility issues with another female dog in the home, her owners have made the tough decision to find her a new place to call her own. Tessa is an energetic and affectionate dog who enjoys swimming and playing fetch, especially when her toys involve water. She pulls on the leash during walks, but with some consistent training, she's sure to improve. Inside the home, she displays excellent manners: she's house-trained and has never shown any food aggression. Tessa loves to snuggle and relax with her family. While she has been wonderful with adults and teenagers, she needs to be the only dog in the household. Tessa can be selective with other dogs and prefers a calm environment where she can feel secure and decompress. This means she might require slow introductions to new canine friends. Ideally, her future family will offer her regular exercise, perhaps with a yard for her to play in. It's also worth noting that she's up-to-date on her vaccinations, though she may have a bit of arthritis and limps when she runs too much. If you think you could provide Tessa with the home she deserves, then she's ready to meet you. Make their next chapter their best one yet.
