PLEASE NOTE! Unless stated otherwise, our dogs and puppies are located in Arkansas, and transported to the north/northeast once adopted. We do occasionally have dogs/puppies placed in foster homes in the north/northeast. In the cases where the pet is somewhere other than Arkansas, it will be noted beside the name of the pet.

*******Please read all info! Tessa is located in Arkansas but she is listed for adoption in all of the states that we offer transport to. She will not be transported until she has an adopter waiting for her. Please do not apply if you are not interested in adopting a dog from out of state.*******

10.14.17 Tessa is a sweet girl who is coming into rescue as an owner surrender. Her owner lives in a very rural area which is a common dumping ground for unwanted pets. Tessa's mom had been dumped and was taken in, and then had puppies. One of the puppies is Tessa. She is now a couple of years old and her owner has asked me to help find her a home. She just has too many dogs and can't care for all them. Tessa is very shy but very sweet. She needs a family who will be patient with her while she learns to trust them. Tessa is on the smaller side, weighing 29lbs when I had her spayed recently. Unfortunately, she had heartworms but we have had her treated and she has recovered without any complications. Being young and otherwise healthy, she is not expected to have any lasting affects of the heartworms. Tessa is ready for a family of her very own and will make a loving and loyal to those who show her patience and kindness. For more info, email kelley.aasr@gmail.com
