Tess in Her Forever Home

Tess is doing great! She has already learned to go to the door when she has to go to the bathroom.. She can go in and out the doggie door to the deck to take her sunbath! She has learned to climb the steps up to my bed but she cannot go down. She is running around the yard with Mollie and having a great time being free. She is eating 3 times a day and just gobbles up the food. She is also learning to sit. Of course Mollie is helping me by sitting on command. Tess watches everything that Mollie does. They sleep together and are now real buddies. I have to tell you that she is a smart little girl. I took her to my vet and she has poor sight out of the "good" eye. There is also some scar tissue in that eye. I noticed she is very careful going down steps and probably has a depth perception issue. All in all, she is a love, always licking you and wanting to cuddle. She also is a snorer at night. She is now the QUEEN of the Hynes castle!

Tess is Adopted

Happy life starts now!!!!!! I'll miss my little munchkin!!

Tess was rescued on 7/23/16 from an Amish puppy mill.  She was a puppy mill slave for 6 years.  When I rescued her she was in pretty bad shape.  Within two days, she needed to be hospitalized and received an emergency spay because her uterus was filled with puss and blood.  She had just had puppies at the mill, was emaciated, and was blind in her left eye due to a previous trauma.  With all that she's been through, she is extremely loving and affectionate. Had NEBTR not rescued her, she would have died within the week.

Under my foster care, she has been recovering and her personality is blossoming.  She is a beautiful little soul!  She is calm, loving, full of kisses, and wiggles.  She loves laying next to me on my couch snuggled around her stuffed animals.  She sleeps in her cushy bed next to my bed at night or on our bed.  She gets the best food, best belly rubs, and the best of everything I could possibly give her.  She just discovered sticks outside our back yard and loves chewing on them.  Every day is a new experience for her.  Each day that passes, she amazes me more and more.

She came without a name.  I named her Tess in honor of my Boxer, Jess, who recently passed away in July.  I promised Tess when she first came to me that I would show her love and find her a great forever home.  Well, that day has come.  With the help of the wonderful volunteers at NEBTR, I was able to find her a great forever home.  She will be going to her forever home this Saturday, 9/24.  I will miss my little munchkin dearly.

With the emptiness that will follow her adoption, my promises will have been kept and my love for her will remain endless…….
