Update: 8/18/10 - Tank had some serious health issues, so it was decided to let the sweet old boy go. RIP, Tank.
The minute you meet him, you'll break into a smile! He is just so cheerful and smiley himself. Tank is a striking, red-head mature malamute that was one of the “Eight Above” rescue dogs. This debonair gentleman is ready to steal your heart with his polite, affectionate manners. Tank’s gentle, sweet spirit will make him an ideal pet.
Tank was rescued by Moonsong with several other dogs during the “Eight Above” rescue mission. He spent several years in the mountains, chained to a tree without adequate care. What a sad past! But he's very friendly to everyone - and even gets along nicely with other dogs, like his pack mates Sweet Pea and Dolly.
Tank enjoys taking walks and being loved! He was friendly and relaxed during the rescue mission and during transport. What a sweetie pie. He is looking for his forever home, which will need to be with adults or children over 13.
All Tank needs now is a chance to show just how much he can love the right family every day for the rest of his life.

Tank looks like he is really enjoying the grooming and attention that local volunteer, Jaime McDaniel, is giving him.
Tank was one of the "loose" dogs on the mountain, however, local neighbor and rescue volunteer, Rod Caughey, was able to get a leash on this friendly giant with the help of some tasty treats.
