Tank

Approx 4 year old neutered male hound mix
Tank was found chained to a tree without food, water nor shelter. The kennel/shelter staff and the volunteers here have really worked with Tank and he has really opened up–learning how to play with toys, how to interact with other people. Tank LOVES his blanket and is learning about treats, etc.
