Tank is a 5–6-year-old Lab mix who weighs about 80 pounds of pure sweetness.
He also has a pretty unusual backstory.
Tank came to us from a shelter in Georgia that scanned him for a microchip and accidentally misread the number. They contacted Tracy’s Paws, believing he was one of ours. When he was transported back to Texas, we quickly realized the chip information was incorrect — but by then, Tank had already stolen our hearts. So, we decided he was meant to stay.
Tank is very obedient, loves being around people, and truly enjoys human companionship. He does well with other dogs when paired with the right handler and guidance.
He’s a big, affectionate boy with a lot of love to give, and we’re grateful that a simple mix-up led him exactly where he was supposed to be.
Tank is located in our shelter in Hondo, Texas.
