Tessa is a wonderful and fairly active 10 year old girl. Enjoys a good Dachsie Run and playing outside. She is a sweet girl that is ever so happy to be in the warm house and sleep in the big bed, BUT don't let her age fool you. Tessa loves being outside in the warm sun, exploring and barking at squirrels. To the best of our knowledge she lived her entire life outside, tied to a tree, with a broken dog house and a single blanket. She was rescued by a neighbor during a deep freeze. She enjoys walks on the leash and plays a little with toys. She does well in the crate if have to leave her in one when you go out. She is an enjoyable pup to have and gets along well with our other 4 dogs. She loves her heating pad bed during the cold winter months, curling up in her blanket till you can't see her. She is a great love bug. She gives tiny little kisses and lots of hugs.
Wouldn't you love to have a sweet, loving girl by your side?

– At this time we are not registered with this state and are unable to adopt to residents. The process to register is lengthy and will take some time. We are currently working on this process
TRANSPORTATION HELP!
If you see a furbaby that would be a match for your family, please don’t let distance stand in the way of your adoption. LPDR can work with you to have a volunteer transport to assist with transportation or refer you to a paid transport.
