My story

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

Meet Tessa — the Sweetest Soul You’ll Ever Meet!

Tessa is an 8‑year‑old, 46‑lb Pitbull mix with a heart as gentle as her smile. She’s spayed, up to date on all her shots, microchipped, and ready to find a family who will adore her as much as she’ll adore them.

This lovely girl is dog‑friendly and kid‑friendly, making her a wonderful fit for a family home or anyone looking for a loyal companion. She does prefer a cat‑free household, but she more than makes up for it with her affection and easygoing nature.

Tessa enjoys the simple joys in life — leisurely walks, snuggles on the couch, and cozy naps on soft beds. She’s fully potty trained, wonderfully food motivated, and eager to please, which makes her a delight to have around.

Above all, Tessa is a sweet, kind soul who radiates love. She’s the type of dog who quietly fills a home with warmth, comfort, and companionship.

If you’re looking for a gentle, loving companion who will be your best friend through every season of life, Tessa is waiting to meet you. To apply today, just copy this link into your browser: https://form.jotform.com/201527297286058

Their adoption process

1.

Submit Application

An application is required to meet foster dogs outside of adoption events.

2.

Interview

Typically there is a phone interview and a vet reference check.

3.

Meet the Pet

We have an in person meet and greet with the pet to ensure it is a good fit for both the dog and the family

4.

Approve Application

Approve the application, pay the fee and take the dog home can occur at the meet and greet if foster and family feel it is a match

Additional adoption info

We look to match the dogs personality, energy, and size to the potential adoptive family lifestyle and dynamics. A family looking for a calm snuggle buddy is not a good match for a working dog that needs to be walked several miles a day to be content and successful in the home.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

APAC has bi-monthly in person adoption events at the Temple, Texas Petsmart, typically on the first and third Saturday of the month. There is no need to wait for an adoption event, with an approved application we will schedule private meet and greets at a time convenient for the foster home and the potential adopter.

More about this rescue

The Association for a Pet Adoption Center (APAC) is a 501(c)3 not-for profit foster home based rescue seeking to alleviate over crowding in our local shelters and help match families with really great dogs. Adoption fees include vaccines, spay/neuter, microchip and heartgard to get started in the new family. We rescue to make a difference in our community, in the lives of homeless pets, and in the lives of families seeking a companion animal.
