My story

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

Hi there, I’m Tess, a sweet little Chihuahua and Pug mix, 2 years old, 9 lbs, living my life in Texas when my owner gave me away to a dog rescue while I was pregnant and almost ready to deliver. I was scared and confused at first but my foster mom was nice to me and not too much later I delivered just one puppy that didn't make it. Life has certainly thrown me some challenges but I am making the best of things and I am finally feeling happy and playful again. I am a friendly little lady that loves people and other dogs. I am learning to play with doggy toys, so I guess I never had any. Mostly I just want to be near my human getting pets and attention, and sharing doggy kisses whenever possible. My foster mom says I am sweet and my little tail is always wagging. I am already housebroken, I walk nicely on a leash, and I am excited when we get to go for a car ride. I am well-behaved in a home, I rarely bark, no chewing, no digging, I’m lovely. I have had all my vaccines and now that I am spayed I am ready to find a much better forever family. There is a rescue dog transport van leaving Texas on 6/15 and I will be on my way to a brand new future and a brand new family that will love me to the moon and back!
