Howdy from Texas! My name is Tank, and I am a handsome Boxer/Mastiff mix, almost 1-year-old, about 80 lbs, and I was hanging out at a convenience store in Castroville, Texas, trying to make friends with the customers so someone would take me home. Thankfully, my plan worked when a lady pulled up in her car, and she is now my foster mom. I have been having a fun time playing with the other foster dogs while getting ready for adoption… vaccines, neuter, microchip, preventatives, lots of love and socialization, although I was already social, LOL!
I am a super friendly boy who gets along great with all people, young and old, other dogs, and kitty cats. I have gobs of energy and enjoy playtime and outdoor activities like walking, hiking, camping, tug-of-war, running zoomies, or any kind of adventure! I am good on a leash and love rides in the car, and I’ll jump right in on my own when you call me. Fun fact: I am a total foodie! I’ll eat any treat offered, but I especially like carrots. I am also the affectionate type, not embarrassed to share kisses or snuggle beside you on the sofa. I am a very nice playmate for grownups, kids, or dogs, and although I will retrieve a ball when thrown, I’m still learning to bring it back to you. I’m well-behaved, housebroken, doggy-door trained, and I do not guard my food or toys. As a matter of fact, one of my doggy friends and I will frequently share food bowls. I am just a very nice boy and a total looker who can rock a bowtie, and I know I will make a wonderful forever dog! Inquire about me today.
