**Fostered in Marysville, WA and ready for meet & greets!**
With his handsome upright ears, deep loving eyes that melt your heart, and the cutest brindle markings on his legs, Tank is a true stunner! But he’s not just all good looks, he’s also intelligent, gentle, social, and affectionate. He is great with kids, cats, and dogs, making him an easy fit for just about any family.
The first thing you will notice about Tank, after his mesmerizing good looks, is how incredibly sweet and affectionate he is. Since the day he was born, he has been shown lots of love and affection, making him a very lovable and social pup. He is a true social butterfly who loves meeting new people and going out in public to check out new places.
A true adventurer, Tank is easy on the leash and great in the car. He loves to go for road trips, running errands, going to dog-friendly restaurants and stores, or anywhere else you want to take your new best friend. He would make an excellent hiking and camping buddy!
Playful and fun, Tank loves to have a good time. He’s not a high energy pup though. He can run and play with the best of them, but is also happy to cuddle up on the couch or his doggy bed and take a nice long snooze. He’s a calm boy who just goes with the flow, adjusting his energy to the situation. Tank LOVES to play with other dogs, and gets along with all ages and sizes. He has also lived with cats and would do great in a home with them.
Tank’s intelligence is clearly seen. He is eager to learn and food motivated, making training a breeze. He is fully crate trained and sleeps in his crate all night without a peep. He is still perfecting his potty training, but he’s about 90% there.
One of Tank's siblings took a DNA test, revealing a genetic masterpiece boasting a blend of German Shepherd Dog intelligence, Bullmastiff calmness, American Bulldog charm, and a sprinkle of other great breeds. While we can't predict the future with certainty, we estimate this delightful canine will tip the scales at a robust 70-80 pounds once fully grown.
Tank is an incredible companion, just waiting for his forever family to choose him. He is the last of his litter, and all of his siblings’ adopters say what an amazing litter of pups these are. They are all so loving, sweet, calm, and social. Even his mom has been adopted and she also has a fantastic demeanor that he surely inherited from her. You won’t find a better family dog than Tank. He loves EVERYONE, furry and not. He is sure to bring so much love, laughter, and joy into your life.

*WE ARE TOLD THAT WE GO ABOVE AND BEYOND MEDICALLY. This is the feedback we tend to get, although we cannot guarantee perfect health.
*To fully vet a dog in the PNW at many vets it would be upwards of $1,800 just to fix, vaccinate, chip, etc. The adoption fees charged by our rescue do not cover our expenses medically for each animal, but we offset costs with donations. Your adoption fee is considered a donation towards actual costs.
Why adopt from Three Little Pitties?
The stray and animal overpopulation in the Greater Houston area is the highest in the nation. Statistics show that there are over 1 million homeless animals in this region alone. Three Little Pitties Rescue is a nonprofit dog and cat rescue that partners with the community to make a difference. Our mission is to reduce the homeless pet population through community outreach, free spay and neuter services, and saving all breeds of dogs and cats from the streets or animal shelters that oftentimes have no other option but to euthanize animals for space. This dog you’ve found online is lucky to be in our program, and even luckier to have you notice it!
Three Little Pitties wants to set you and your new pet up for success! We know our dogs and we work hard to prepare them socially for adoption. We are a network of dedicated people who are heavily invested in seeing our animals thrive. From the moment they are accepted into our program, our Intake, Behavior & Medical teams prepare them for adoption by properly vetting, behaviorally assessing, and providing customized plans depending on the dog’s needs. We seek to adopt to families who understand that these are rescue dogs and will require continued training efforts, but will be well on their way to being the best dogs that they can be!
It doesn’t stop there! Our adopters also receive these special perks:
• 30 day trial of pet insurance with Trupanion (must register within 24 hours of first vet appt.)
• A free private online dog training session with GoodPup plus low pricing for future sessions (approx $25 weekly for an 8 week course of one session per week)
• One free bonus toy in every BarkBox when signing up for their Super Chewer subscription plan
• 70% off of your first order of Fetch, a PNW based, organic fresh dog food loaf meal subscription plan
• Coupons for a fun visit to Petco
• Access to our exclusive FB Adopters page, where you can network for play dates, resources, and connect with other adopters that share their passion for their adopted pup!
We celebrated our 5 year anniversary this year! Through the combined efforts of all of our hardworking staff and volunteers, we have placed over 12,000 very lucky dogs and cats into amazing homes! By adopting from us, you save TWO lives! The pet you adopt, and you create an opportunity for another animal to be saved in that spot. Together, we can be heroes.
