Tessy is just the cutest little beagle girl and she is like the energizer bunny when she gets outside with all her foster pup friends.  Inside she has nice house manners and she settles down nicely when you ask her to.  If she has another ‘partner in crime’ to play with she is always happy.  She is very sweet and loving, not a lap dog, but a pup who really loves being close to her people.  She is definitely an inside girl.

Tessy will do best with an active family who will take her wherever they go and will make sure she gets plenty of exercise every day.  She isn’t a big chewer but she does love toys and, typically beagle, she loves to dig.

If you think Tessy might be the perfect pup for you, please go to www.allamericanmuttrescue.org, click on Forms/Application and complete your adoption application online.

We are an all-volunteer group, so please be patient and understand that it takes an average of 7-14 days to process the applications including reference checks, follow-up questions and home visits.  You can expedite the process by providing accurate email addresses for all your references.  Time to make phone calls is limited and we often have 10 or more applications in process.  We make every effort to move through them as quickly as possible.

When your application is approved, we will schedule a meet-and-greet to see if Tessy picks you too.

If it seems that the adoption will be a good match for all, there is an adoption fee, and an adoption contract to be signed.
