Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi guys, my name is Tessa. I’m 2 years old. What kind of dog am I? Don’t know. I have a really pretty Brindle coat and I am small. I weigh only 22lbs. I look like a Doxie/Italian Greyhound mix or maybe some kind of Terrier. But if you look at my puppies you be amazed they are related to me. They are much bigger than me. But they are definitely sweet like me! So let’s just say I’m a Heinz 57 or a Mutt but if there is a dog breed called “Apple Pie”, because I am soooo sweet, that’s me. My foster Mom says I am the sweetest foster dog she has ever had. Aww shucks. I am just so grateful I have someone helping me. See, it’s just not me in this foster home but me & my seven babies. We were all located in a kill shelter and that’s not a place for my babies so thankfully we were rescued. Now that we are safe I can relax and let someone else take care of them. Now it’s my turn for someone to take care of me. I’m a really good girl. I am not food aggressive even though I could put on some weight. I’m really small – I weigh a wee 22 lbs. I think my babies are going to be bigger than me! I am house trained because I follow the other dogs outside. I am not dog aggressive and there are cats here that I am indifferent with. I am just a really sweet girl that just loves attention especially if I get to sit on your lap. I don’t think I ever had anyone give me so much loving as much as my foster Mom has given me and I really love it. When I sit on the couch with my foster Mom she tells me I am a special girl and that she is looking for my forever home. Is that you? Can you come here and meet me? Can you whisper in my ear & tell me I’m your girl? I sure hope so. You can see how sweet I am and maybe we can go for a little walk and I will be your forever girl. Oh that would be my best day ever! Xoxo, Tessa.
