Are you looking for a fun co-pilot for all your adventures? An active companion to join you on your daily walk? A smart buddy with a lot of personality and character? Look no further than Hank the Tank! He’s a perfect medium size at just under 30 lbs., is full-grown and past the puppy shenanigans stage at around 3 years old, and he’s got a smiling face that is sure to win you over. Hank had the misfortune of losing his home through no fault of his own, and found himself at the shelter waiting to be noticed by his new forever family. He has a lot going for him; he’s already house trained, walks nicely on a leash, and loves to curl up with you for nap time. He would prefer a home without young kids or small pets, but may be able to get along with other dogs (he prefers to decide on a case-by-case basis! We love a discerning short king!). If you’ve been waiting to find a dog with charm in abundance and a bright mind who can’t wait to become your best friend forever, check him out!
If you think you might be interested in adopting, your first step should be to complete an Application. *After you have completed your application, you will get a confirmation that we have received your application. It takes a lot of time to process the applications, so we ask for your patience while we do so. If you see that the dog you were interested in has been adopted it means there were many applications for that dog and we did not get as far as processing your application before a home was found. We welcome you to apply again if you see another dog that interests you. If you have a question, please email your question to adoptions@caninerescue.org. It is much easier and quicker for us to respond by email as we receive many phone calls each day.
We do adopt out of state, however we do not transport or ship dogs. Potential adopter must be able and willing to travel to the Rescue to meet the dog they are interested in.
*PLEASE double check all of the phone numbers that you provide as if they are incorrect, we will be unable to process your application. Please also let your references know that someone from NCCR will be calling them. Most adoption team members call from their personal phone so advise your references that there may be an unknown number or a private number calling them.
Hank the Tank is sponored by Meg Thering in memory of Jen Leone’s dog Sherman. He is also sponsored by Pauletta Abbey, Jellybean (former NCCR resident) and Doodlebug Parker. Thank you everyone!
