Tessa is a delightful female dog who is approximately [age label]. She's a big fan of long walks in the woods, the deliciousness of treats, and the pure joy of a good belly rub! It might take a moment to earn her trust, but once you do, she'll be happily flopping over for some affection. While she enjoys outdoor adventures, Tessa is just as content to relax by your side, whether that's at your feet or curled up on the couch for a cozy nap. She has adorable "zoomies" when she gets to run around outside, but she's not an overly energetic pup and doesn't require extensive exercise. Tessa truly shines when she hears praise, and her love for positive reinforcement, combined with her enjoyment of treats and belly rubs, makes her a very trainable companion. She already knows some basic commands and tricks like "sit" and "paw"!
During her time in a foster home, Tessa was a model resident. She never showed interest in counters or windowsills, remained quiet, and patiently waited during meal times. She proved to be quite brave, quickly overcoming any initial apprehension about car rides and loud noises. When left to her own devices, Tessa was a perfect housemate, showing no signs of destruction or getting into mischief. She greets her favorite humans with enthusiastic excitement after an absence, but her joy settles down just as quickly. Tessa is patiently waiting for the chance to show someone what a goofy, loving, and loyal companion she can be!
