Tess
Tess is a 4 year old female spayed Shih Tzu who came in to Misty Creek as an owner surrender. Her previous owners felt they did not have enough time for this sweet soul.
She is a tiny little girl with a big heart. She really likes cats and gets along with every dog she has encountered so far. Tess is excellent with a 2 year old, and seems to love all people in general. Her favorite are people who want to hug and pet her. She really LOVES her people and loves to be held and cuddled.
She adapts to her surroundings extremely quickly and is excellent on the leash. She likes to be carried and to snuggle on the couch in her spare time.
She has been freshly groomed where she became a favorite right away in the shop. She has spent a day at doggy daycare where she played very well with others. For a small dog she is very calm even around the two resident large black labs.
Adopted into a forever home.
Founded in 1998 as a no-kill shelter, Misty Creek Dog Rescue is one of many volunteer-run shelters in Western Canada shouldering the burden of the thousands of animals who are abandoned, abused or surrendered every year.
Misty Creek Dog Rescue takes in dogs from pounds, reserves, other shelters and voluntary owner surrenders providing them with medical care, vaccinations, and behavioural training with the aim of finding them forever homes. Because of the strict no-kill mandate, dogs may stay at the shelter for years until they are successfully placed with a suitable family.
Working closely with foster home volunteers, they have saved over 2300 dogs.
