Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Tess — our gentle, wiggly Mastiff girl!
Tess was found running around Auburn before being brought safely to our shelter, and we’ve all fallen for her sweet, gentle nature. She can be a little shy when meeting new people, but once she realizes she’s safe, her whole personality blossoms — soft eyes, slow tail wags, and full-body wiggles included.
She seems to do great with larger dogs, but small dogs and small animals aren’t a good fit for her. Toys are her absolute favorite, and it’s adorable to watch her pick out her favorites. She’s also growing braver every day on her walks and gaining confidence outside.
Tess is truly a special girl who just needs someone patient, kind, and ready to love a gentle giant. Come meet her — she might just be your new best friend.An adoption application can be filled out on the DHS website https://www.dekalbhumanesociety.org/adopt. Dog adoption fees are $200.00 for all puppies and adult dogs. Seniors are a donation of choice. Cats and kittens are a donation of choice.
