Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. // Find our applications at www.midwestanimalrescue.orgAdoption Fee $400 plus taxMeet Tessa, Tessa is a spunky little boxer mix with a contagious zest for life. She has the excitement of a boxer, without the trademark physicality. She was hesitant with people at first due to being undersocialized with them in her former life in Mississippi, but did not take long to overcome her fear. She is not jumpy, but instead dances or swipes to express her excitement (or may climb up on your lap to give kisses if you are sitting down). She sometimes 'talks' to communicate, but is not overly vocal. She is submissive to alpha dogs, seems to understand her body/space, and has a soft mouth, making her a good match for almost anyone, unless you're a slipper or a hosta. She is even good with cats! Tessa is your typical adolescent, and a perfect example of 'a tired puppy is a well-behaved puppy.' She will self-entertain with toys and zoomies outside, but also loves a good walk or brief wrestling match to expend her energy in preparation for a good nap or a full-night's sleep. Tessa is looking for her forever family to share her joy with. Is that you?

The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed. Sometimes the pets appear to be a particular breed(s) in the pictures we receive from our rescue partners and when they arrive we are surprised to see an entirely different breed(s) in person! If you choose to DNA test your adopted pet, test results may vary from company to company and our breed guess may not be reflected in those results as it is just that, our best guess. It is with deep longing that we wish there was a breed called 'cute' as we believe all of our dogs would fall under this new breed classification! Completion of an Adoption Application via our website www.midwestanimalrescue.org is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is the first step in our adoption process. *Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption.
