Just look at that happy face! This is Tank and his happy face is a reflection of all of our happy faces because he’s healthy and back to his young self. You see, Tank uncharacteristically decided to swallow a…um…bra a few months back. We had to reschedule his photo session for much later so that he could heal from his two surgeries. I am SO GLAD everything’s okay and I know it has a lot to do with his absolutely wonderful and caring Mom who offered preventive care when she discovered his appetizer from that evening.
Tank is a wonderful Lab/Pit mix. He’s smart and has an independent personality but loves the comfort of his human family whom he has to keep tabs on at all times.
And, much to my delight, he is a GIANT Gator fan. If you say, “Go Gators”, he gives you a high five. If you say, “Go Seminoles” he lays down unenthusiastically. It’s awesome. I had to get a photo of him with his favorite Gator football, even at the risk of him “posing”. However, when I saw this photo, I honestly laughed out loud. It’s SO human, old-school, high school football, senior yearbook picture – I was in hysterics. I imagined him in this photo with a New Jersey accent (I don’t know why), all casual and cool like. “Yep, Gatahs fan. Me. Yep. Go Gatahs.” Uga, eat your heart out.
He’s regal and distinguished, just gorgeous, but the way he carries himself is unmistakably “man”.
He totally adores his Mom (as well as his Grandmom) and is a delight to hang out with. A winning personality, which has no doubt influenced his favorite team this year, a handsome face and a funny bone make him a perfect Saturday morning partner. Yes, way better than cartoons for sure.
Thank you Naomi & April for letting Tank roll into my week!

Fantastic pictures. I love the last two; your photos always perk up my day! Ate a bra, ehhh?
My husband found your photos of Tank and we could not believe the similarities between him and our little girl, Coco. We adopted her from a rescue and didn’t know her breed(s). We knew lab and figured pitbull, but your photos made us pretty sure she is a lab/pit mix. She too is an awesome dog. The photos made me smile. I love them.
