Meet Gorgeous Tess,
Tess is very clever and eager to please.
She has been trained to sit and wait for her dinner, not eating until commanded and can catch treats.
She LOVES to be in the kitchen with you to ‘help’ you to cook and look at you with her bright eyes, hoping to be tossed a treat! (Warning- she eats EVERYTHING however raw cauliflower does cause very bad smells!) Tess is very food motivated and comes running when she hears the noise of her food bowl.
Tess has been trained to not jump up on people but does get very excitable around other dogs and loves to play with them. She is submissive to other dogs, big and small, and always rolls on her back when introduced.
Tess has a very soft coat and loves a pat and a cuddle. Her preferred spot when you are relaxing or at the computer is to lie near you and sleep.
Tess loves a walk and if there is any action, wants to be part of it. She is crate trained and always goes into her crate when directed. She sleeps happily in her crate at night and only barks when she is worried about something. She doesn’t join her foster brother to bark at the front fence at any other dogs going by, and seems to be alert to only genuine worries.
Tess would be suitable for a family with children old enough to direct her. She loves a car ride and is an ideal companion for trips to the beach and camping. Tess is now of an age where all her naughty puppy behaviours are gone and she has all her best years to spend in a loving home.
Tess is $350 to adopt and comes desexed, microchipped, C5 vaccinated and given flea, tick and worm preventatives.
