My personality

Why I need a new home

Human health issues (e.g. allergies, sickness)

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:


Tessa is 8 years old and a fixed female German Shepherd. She loves to be outside either laying in the yard or on a hike. She is good with dogs although will bark if on leash. She also gets along with cats and children. We have recently found that our daughter is allergic and have tried multiple remedies without success. She is a great dog and we love her but she deserves more than being confined to a room with limited contact with her family. Tessa would do best in a home with a fenced in yard.
