About

Meet Tank

DESCRIPTION: Tank was picked up as a stray and brought to a shelter. Staff members immediately noticed that this big guy was social and friendly. So, they waited for his family to come and claim him, when no one stepped forward, Tank was placed on the adoption floor hoping to find a family of his very own. Although this handsome guy did well with visitors, he was never the chosen dog. With shelters significantly over capacity, shelter staff had no choice but to place Tank on the list for euthanasia. They knew this boy was special, but they didn't have an option to move him forward. Fortunately, another rescue was able to secure foster placement for Tank until a breed specific rescue could step forward. While they waited for placement options, the other rescue handled Tank's heartworm treatment and had his vetting updated. When they heard that MAGSR had a few openings, they asked us to welcome Tank into the family so that we could find him an amazing forever family.  Tank is clearly a very special guy. Well behaved, very intelligent, and a friendly guy, Tank is looking for that amazing family that will cherish him throughout his golden years. Having lived in an amazing foster home, Tank is housebroken and crate trained. He understands many of the ins and outs of living in a household and loves being with a family. However, as is true of any new furry family member, this big guy will need time, patience, and leadership in order to adjust to the routines and expectations of his forever family. A huge fan of his daily walks, Tank is hoping his forever family enjoys a good stroll on a daily basis. Although Tank enjoys daily opportunities for exercise and playtime, he also enjoys hang time with his people. Some extra cuddles in the evening are always appreciated. As is true of all GSDs, Tank is looking for a household with structure and routine. Training will go a long way with this guy. Not only will it allow him to create a strong and healthy bond with his forever family, but it will also help him become a good canine citizen. If handsome Tank sounds like the right match for your family, ask to meet him today!
