Hi Everyone!  I am still here.  WHY???  I am a good boy with lots of love to give.  I passed all my behavioral testing with flying colors and just want a home to call my own.  Please think about giving me a chance to be a part of your family.  If you have another dog that I can wrestle and play tug with that would be super fun, but if not, we can do things too like going for a jog, maybe the dog park or a class that I can learn even more in. 

 

Hello!   My name is Tank.  Not sure why they named me this because I am not a big guy at all.  Actually I only weigh 60 pounds!  I am about 5 years old and very smart.  I can even do a balance beam!  

I came to LEARN because I was guarding my yard and nipped at people's ankles who came into it one too many times and got myself into trouble.  After coming to LEARN, I went to Board and Train for 3 weeks and have become the perfect gentleman I was meant to be.  I have shown no aggression or signs of being a trouble maker.  LEARN thinks that being in a yard with no supervision and an invisible fence that didn't keep kids out was the issue.  So I should always be supervised when I'm outside and in a yard with a fence so that people don't just wander in. 

At Board and Train I learned all my manners: sit, down, come, stay, heel, leave it, etc.  So there is nothing basic that you will need to teach me.  But I would love to keep up with some sort of training, maybe rally or different tricks.  I love to learn so let's do that together!   Now that I have graduated from Board and Train :), I'm part of the Retrievers and Redemption Program.
