About Tess
Tess is a people-orientated girl who is eager to please and to work for her person (especially if food is involved!). She is a high drive kelpie, with a history of strong breed traits and has a strong temperament, and is looking for a home with acreage and experience with working breed kelpies. She will be best in a home without any other animals, where she can build up a positive association with other dogs before she can live with one! It's not clear how much socialisation she has had, and although she has a generally confident temperament around people, she is still quite nervous in new situations and will need a slow and gentle approach to help her learn the world is not a scary place.
If you think you have the perfect home for Tess, please get-in-touch with RSPCA Peninsula!
