Story
Tank is an owner surrender who may come off as very nervous at first, but deep down he’s a big baby just waiting to feel safe 🐾💙. Once he becomes comfortable, he turns into an affectionate boy who actively seeks out attention and connection with his people. Because he can be sensitive to quick movements and certain types of touch, Tank would do best in a calm, adults-only home where he can continue to build confidence at his own pace. He was originally surrendered with other canine companions, but he does have a history of getting into fights with other dogs, so he would thrive as the only pet in the household. With patience and understanding, Tank has the potential to form a very strong and loving bond with his future family.

Story
** PLEASE EMAIL questions, please DO NOT call. We are a volunteer based group and are unable to handle the call volume. WE HOLD ADOPTIONS ON SATURDAYS & SUNDAYS FROM 10-4 PM at our Adoption Center. Our adoption center is located next to CAL Ranch at 232 North Jones (I-95) Suite 170. NO APPOINTMENT NECESSARY, just walk right in. Barney is 7 yrs old and weighs about 18 lbs. His owner went into the hospital and is not able to care for him any longer. He is very outgoing and would do best with children over 10 yrs. He lived with 2 other dogs in the home also. Because his mom was sick, he was not being let out often enough, but was housebroken prior. He just needs some retraining, his foster is working on this and he is catching on quickly. FROM MY FOSTER: He is a sweetheart, great with the foster dogs. He needs older children as he is mouthy when playing. He is energetic and playful . He likes laps to lay in. A Path 4 Paws holds adoption events at our Adoptions Center, located at 232 N. Jones Blvd, Suite 170 right next to CAL Ranch (North Jones/ I-95). Please bring your dog(s) for a meet and greet (if applicable) Please bring your entire family so everyone can meet. If you are interested in Barney, please contact dogrescuelv@hotmail.com to confirm the dog you are interested in, will be attending that particular event. We have limited space at the store, therefore we can not take every dog out to the event. This pet comes with 30 days of free post-adoption support through Petcademy.org . This benefit includes free access to Petcademy's team of trainers/behaviorists, as well as access to online materials that will help you settle Barney into your home. You can text unlimited questions to Petcademy and they'll respond within 24 hours, Monday-Friday. This pet is spayed/neutered, has current vaccinations and includes a microchip, deworming and 2 free vet visits, including a Healthy Start Certificate with the VCA Hospitals with a $250 health credit (restrictions apply).
