If there were a map of your house, his favorite destination would be Right Next To You. He’s a sensitive soul who prefers a cozy hangout session over a wild party, making him the perfect companion for anyone who loves a quiet afternoon and a loyal sidekick. Wait until you see those puppy dog eyes in action Watch Hanky’s adoption video! https://youtu.be/7fFX-GAgDW8 What exactly is Hanky Pank ? While we’d love to check his family tree, as with any rescue, we’re mostly making an educated (and very cute) guess! He’s 67 lbs of pure adoration, with a heart that’s clearly much larger than his frame. Think of him as a premium, fur-covered weighted blanket that’s always ready for a snuggle. Hanky is currently flourishing in a foster home where he’s learning that the world is a pretty great place. He is a true gentleman who treats every interaction with a quiet, polite grace. When you offer him a snack, he takes it with the gentlest of touches, often following it up with a soft thank you kiss that will absolutely melt your heart. When it comes to making four legged friends, Hanky is all about the slow and steady approach. He’s a polite soul who gets along with everyone from tiny pups to big companions his own size. Hanky Pank isn’t the let’s wrestle type, he’s much more of a quiet co-exist. He prefers friends who share his chill vibe and appreciate the finer things in life, like a long nap in a patch of sunlight. He’d be a wonderful brother to a calm resident dog, but he’s also perfectly content to be your one and only and soak up all the attention for himself. Whether he’s part of a pack or your solo sidekick, Hanky just wants everyone to feel as relaxed as he is. Whether your pack includes other four legged friends or just a few favorite humans, Hanky is officially ready to move in and make himself at home. If you have a spot on the floor and an even bigger spot in your heart Hanky is ready to be your most loyal sidekick for life. What about feline roommates? While Hanky is a world-class lover, he’s decided that he’d prefer a feline free sanctuary. He is looking for a home where he can be the star of the show without any cat. Hanky’s dream home is a peaceful sanctuary where he can be the center of your world. While he’d love a yard to sniff around in, his calm demeanor makes him perfectly suited for apartment living as long as he has his favorite human nearby. There is something deeply special about winning Hanky’s heart: once he knows he’s home, he becomes a total tail wagging machine the very moment you walk through the door, greeting you with a rhythm that says, I’m so glad you’re back. It’s a sweet, soulful welcome that reminds you every single day just how much you are loved. In every way that matters, Hanky is a soulful, gentle, and incredibly loyal friend who is simply looking for a soft place to land and a person to call his own. He is a low gear guy with high quality love to give the kind of companion who doesn't need much more than your presence to be perfectly happy. Ready to bring this sweet shadow home?
