Adopt Affectionate Yorkie: TessaTessa
🐶 Meet Tessa – Your Loyal, Restaurant-Loving Companion!
Are you looking to adopt a Yorkshire Terrier in Pretoria who is already a perfect little lady? Meet Tessa! At almost 8 years old, this gorgeous girl is the perfect blend of moderate energy and complete devotion. Tessa is ready to bring her warmth, affection, and charming personality into a brand-new forever home.
Tessa is a wonderfully behaved companion who absolutely loves her daily walks and is fully leash-trained. In fact, she is so well-mannered that when her family takes her along to pet-friendly restaurants, she contentedly lays quietly under the table, watching the world go by. She is highly affectionate and loves being close to her human companions, though she will let you know when visitors arrive with a few alert barks before happily accepting them once they are welcomed inside.
Tessa is used to being left alone for a maximum of three hours at a time. Her owners have always left the TV playing softly for her to keep her company while they are out. She is also a bit sensitive to loud noises and thunder, and she will actively seek out her humans for comfort and security when a storm rolls in or loud noises are in the air. If you have room in your heart and on your bed for this sweet girl, she will reward you with endless loyalty.

Temperament: Highly affectionate, moderate energy, loves walks, barks initially at strangers but accepts them quickly if her owners have accepted them. Quiet and well-behaved in public.
