Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Tessa is about a year old. She was found as a stray out in the country. She was very shy of people and dogs when she first arrived at the shelter, but a few weeks later and she is coming out of her shell. She likes to be held by someone familiar and will let strangers pet her. She weighs about 12# and is heartworm negative.
Although Tessa is currently in Amite, Louisiana, transport to New England can easily be arranged through Animal Rescue Front.
