4/22/2026:  Meet Tessa: Your Next Adventure Buddy! 🐾❤

A Foster Dog’s Tale

Woof woof! Hi, I’m Tessa, your soon-to-be best friend (if you let me!). I’m a one-year-old Boxer bursting with energy, smiles, and an endless supply of wiggle butts. If you’re someone who thinks a day isn’t complete without chasing a ball, playing tug-of-war, or going on a sniff-tastic adventure, then we might just be a perfect pair.

Before I found my way to foster life, I was hanging out with both dogs and cats, so I know how to share and play nice with all sorts of furry pals. My favorite thing? Wrestling and running with my doggy siblings—so if you already have a playful pup, I’m ready to join in the fun!

But don’t let my zoomies fool you—I have a soft side, too. When the sun goes down, I love nothing more than snuggling up with my humans. If you need a cuddle buddy for movie night or someone to warm your feet, look no further. My heart belongs to whoever gives me belly rubs and treats (did I mention I’m super food motivated?).

Being a young pup, I still have some silly puppy habits, but I’m eager to learn. I thrive when my humans help me with training and routine—plus, I’ll do almost anything for a treat, making teaching me extra fun! I’m also crate-trained and happy to hang out in my safe space, especially if I have a squeaky toy to keep me company.

If you’re searching for a loyal, energetic, and loving companion who will fill your home with laughter and tail wags, I think we should meet! Let’s start our adventure together and make every day a little more pawsome. 💛💕🐕🐾❤️💕
