This gorgeous gal is looking for her happily ever after home. Must be a cat free home & preferably no small children. Best suited in a rural or semi rural home, a place with a a large garden & outdoor space where she can chill & also be allowed indoors to be part of the family.

A bit about Tessa:

• desexed & vaccinated, weighs 38kg.
• has bilateral hip dysplasia but not showing any signs of pain or distress & manages well, might limp after a long walk but settles with rest, we can provide medical records. Not on any medication, exercise & weight management keep her sorted.Things like not walking up steep hills, lots of steps, & help into the car all help to manage it. Previous owners managed a 2-4km walk in the morning & late afternoon. Her hips don't stop her walking along the river splashing in the water, or gentle run arounds with dogs at VinView Pet Lodge.
• loves to bark at things & she’ll have a chat with you, she barks at a dog to play, & if she’s unsure of a situation she may bark till you tell her ok, so a home in the suburbs where she’s left alone for long periods will not be suitable.
• would love to be with people who are home much of the day & she can hang out with. Will lay quietly with everyone in the lounge while you watch TV & will come up for a cuddle on the sofa. She sleeps inside at night & will go off to bed when tired.
• can take a while to get used to strange people & can be wary of strange men.
• loves peanut butter & pretty much all treats – NO beef tho as allergic to it.
• loves playing with her red ball & soccer ball, will play with them herself tossing them around the yard.
• is strong & could topple someone over if they are frail, this could happen if she suddenly takes off seeing a cat or a rabbit, owners used to walk her on a body harness or a face halti.
