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:


Tess is a 10 year old, 12 lb energetic Jack Russell Terrier. She has always been the only pet in the house. The owner is 91 year old war veteran that has recently moved into a small Assisted Care facility without a yard and he can no longer take her on walks, all of which is taking a toll on her. She's a little shy/skittish at first with new people but she warms up quickly, especially if there are treats or cheese involved. She loves being on the patio watching people, playing with squeaky toys and sitting in every chair in the house.
