I will make a wonderful family pet, I promise!

Tessa was a wonderful 3-month-old pup who arrived at our shelter after she was abandoned at a home in Checotah, Oklahoma. She is a sweet and cuddly gal, who has an attitude that ranges from easygoing to adventurous. Her temperament would make her an ideal family dog or a good fit for a first-time dog owner willing to give her plenty of exercise. But don't let her laid back ways fool you, she will need lots of daily exercise and plenty of activity. If she doesn't get a chance to burn off all that energy, Tessa will take matters into her own hands(paws)and burn that energy by chewing things or digging in your yard. Tessa is almost housetrained but will need a little extra training before she's solid. If you have the time and energy for this dog, please come by and meet Tessa.
