My story

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

The Trenton 5 has arrived. 4 puppies came to the shelter from one litter and then a single stray pup arrived later that day. We don't think the single pup is related but we have combined them into one big happy family for companionship, comfort and socialization. Puppies are a big responsibility. We take our time in placing a puppy in the proper home. It is not first come first served. We also give priority to families that can show previous ownership of a dog for its entire life span. All of the pups are living with 3 adult dogs and are respectful of their space and needs. They are also living with 3 young children and can't get enough attention and affection from them. They are appropriate with children but will scratch them by accident when jumping around with excitement.

TESSA is a wild girl. She is 6-8 weeks old. She is always the first one out of the pen and running around. She is also the first one to tucker out and lay down from being exhausted. She is a sweet girl that tries to be the boss. She is on the dominant side and would do best paired with a submissive dog or by herself. She is also the most independent and is willing to stray from the pack and explore the world around her.
