About Hank the Tank

Hank the Tank is a strong and stocky low-rider who’s ready for his forever home. At around 4.5 years old, he knows how to unwind after a nice romp or hike. Hank enjoys his walks, though he should always be monitored around younger kids due to his exuberance and strength—he thinks he can be a lap dog! Hank gets along well with other dogs and has proven himself as both housetrained and crate-trained. He’s mastered leash walking and is looking for a family with an active lifestyle. Although he can dish out sloppy kisses all day, Hank also knows when it’s time to chill. He is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and currently on preventative measures for flea, tick, and heartworm. Following his successful heartworm treatment, he’s all set to start his next adventure. If you’re interested in adding a caring companion to your life, Hank could be just the right match.
