Tank is a 2 year old Shepherd mix, he currently weighs 55.7 pounds.
He's had a rough life so far from what we can see. Tank is very timid when he first meets people, it seems that someone mistreated him. Once he warms up and knows you are not going to hurt him he will get right in your lap. Tank was diagnosed with Lyme's disease and he is on medication for it right now.
UPDATE:
Tank is still very timid at first with people but he loves other dogs and even does well with the cat in his foster home. He enjoys being outside especially when he's walked along the creek as he seems drawn to water. He does great on a leash but he does not let his foster parents put the leash on willingly so it takes patience, but this has been improving.
He does love to run around in the fenced yard and doesn’t look for a way to escape, however he does not come through the door to come inside. He has been more comfortable lately and can be pretty playful.
If you would like to foster or adopt Tank please fill out an application from our website. He will require a fenced yard for potty and playtime.
