My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet this big ol' love muffin! Behold, Mr. Tank! And boy, does this pup live up to his name. 

Tank came to us very recently as a stray and was never reclaimed by his previous family. We aren't quite sure how or why someone would let this hunk of handsome go because he's a super duper good boy! If his adorable little smile doesn't reel you in, than his butt wiggles and charm will certainly will. 

He has been a doll with all of our staff members and has done great meeting kids. Tank doesn't seem bothered by the other shelter dogs, leading us to believe transitioning into a home with a canine sibling should be pretty easy. We have not yet cat-tested this gentle giant, but have faith that he will do just fine. 

Tank has done fabulous about keeping a clean kennel and plays politely with toys. He is VERY strong on leash and would likely benefit from being walked with a harness or having a fenced yard to romp around in. Don't worry, hardcore exercise is not on this guy's to-do list and he's more than content spending his afternoons snuggling up on the couch. 

If you're looking for a large, loveable, and loyal pup. Look for further! Tank's here waiting and he can't wait to go home!
