Tessa

This is Shannon’s new dog, Tessa. I say Shannon’s dog because she kinda picked her out, named her, and she’s doing most of the walking and the training right now. We are told she is part Golden Retriever and part Collie and we got her from Heaven Can Wait, a local rescue organization. She’s a runner so we have to watch the gates real close, hopefully we can cure her of that as that’s the reason she ended up on the block in the first place… wouldn’t stay home.

Shannon’s been training her and making good progress already including some off leash work! These pictures were taken back in May but I find her to be quite camera shy (actually afraid of the camera)… Better shots upcoming.

I haven’t spent enough time with her yet to grow too attached. She is, after all, taking Lucky’s place and that is a ‘big’ collar to fill.
