Arrival Story:
Tank was a rescue and he was a hyper, crazy boy who was humping and peeing everywhere! Sit Means Sit training got him cleaned up and he turned into an awesome dog. He is very versatile and when I tracked down his breeder we started hunt tests with them, which is Tank’s favorite thing, he loves the birds!
