This is Tank:



Tank is a 7 year old lab/newfoundland cross that I met today.  He was given up by his owners about 3 months ago as they had too many medical issues of their own to be able to care for him any longer.  He went to live with one of the receptionists at the clinic.  However, she struggled to afford his care so he was looking for a new home.

He is a morbidly obese 165 pounds, possibly due to the meals of dog food smothered with gravy and the spoonful of peanut butter he got each morning and evening to hide his pills.  He is also very arthritic and epileptic.  And he is a sweetheart.

So being a sucker for gigantic dogs, he came to live with me today.  At least, assuming DH approves.  He doesn't exactly realize I have this gigantic monster in the house yet.  But the dogs like him...  :)
