Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Tanky!
A magnificent Dogue de Bordeaux estimated to be around 5 years old, making him a playful and loving male! This large, brown beauty tips the scales at a solid 105.0 pounds, embodying the true spirit of his breed. Currently located in Pocono Summit, PA, Tank, or Tanky as we affectionately call him, is in search of his forever home and is more than willing to travel to find the perfect match.
While Tanky exudes a playful nature, it's important to share that he has a history that includes an incident where he attacked another dog. In the spirit of transparency, we believe his future family must be aware of this event. It's essential to note that this one occurrence doesn't define Tanky entirely. In general, he is a friendly dog who requires a specific environment to thrive.
We are seeking an adopter with experience in handling challenging dog behaviors. Tanky needs someone who can provide consistent training, supervision, and care to ensure he leads a safe and fulfilling life. Despite his past, Tanky is a dog with potential, waiting for the right family to guide him on the path to becoming the best version of himself!
Tanky is good with young children, showcasing a gentle side that complements his more spirited moments. To facilitate his boundless energy and curiosity, Tanky requires a fenced yard, allowing him the freedom to explore and play safely.
As a purebred Dogue de Bordeaux, Tanky brings a touch of elegance to his playful antics. His favorite activities include sniffing and running, making him an ideal partner for outdoor adventures!
If you're ready for the rewarding challenge of welcoming Tanky into your life and providing the training and care he needs, you'll discover a loyal companion who brings joy and love into every day!
