Tank 3483

01/16/26<br/><br/>Tank is a handsome black and tan male Doberman with a sleek, athletic frame and a notably large, expressive head that perfectly matches his gentle soul. Though the world can feel overwhelming to him at times, Tank is incredibly sweet and tender-hearted, approaching life with cautious curiosity rather than fear. He does not display aggression toward people or other dogs, but he thrives best as a single-dog companion where he can feel secure and fully bonded to his person. His sensitive nature makes him especially responsive to praise, reassurance, and calm leadership.<br/><br/>Playful and endearing, Tank finds great joy in his toys and is well known for his frequent bursts of zoomies that showcase both his energy and personality. He is currently working on improving his on-leash obedience and continues to make progress with consistent guidance and positive reinforcement. While he is not destructive in the home, Tank should be crated whenever he is not under direct supervision, as structure and routine help him feel safe and settled. A securely fenced yard is essential for him, as he has a strong urge to explore and should never be left unattended outdoors due to his tendency to seek opportunities to roam.<br/><br/>Tank truly flourishes in an active home where he can spend plenty of time outdoors, going for walks, playing, and enjoying meaningful companionship. He does wonderfully with children, particularly those aged ten and older, who can engage with him in energetic and respectful play. Above all, Tank longs for an owner who will share his love for activity, adventure, and connection. With the right person, Tank will be a loyal, affectionate, and joyful companion who brings both warmth and excitement into everyday life<br/><br/>11/10/25.<br/><br/>Tank is one of the many Dobies abandoned in the Redlands. After months of trying to catch him along with his companion Sunday, a very dedicated volunteer was able to catch him and bring him to us. This all-natural young dober boy is beyond sweet and just wants to be loved. After months of fending for himself, this boy has learned some Houdini skills and is an escape artist who can scale a 6-foot fence in a heartbeat. He will need an extremely secure backyard with at least an 8-ft fence and can’t be left unsupervised. This beautiful boy may take a bit of work and training, but it will be worth it as he has a wonderful temperament, not to mention he is absolutely adorable.<br/><br/>Not every dog is available for adoption or need a foster - some are wards of the rescue (usually due to medical reasons, but sometimes behavioral). These dogs will always be supported by DRL. We welcome financial support for these dogs. Here are links to foster and adoption applications for those dogs who need a foster home or adoptive home.<br/>Foster Application Adoption Application
