About Tank
Meet Tank – a lovable young boy ready to learn
Tank is a young Kelpie x Cavoodle with a big heart and an even bigger desire to love his people.
Weighing just 15.5 kg, he may not be the biggest dog at the dog park, but he could very well be the cutest.
Tank is fantastic with kids and is happiest simply hanging out with them while they play outside. He also gets along well with other dogs and really just wants to be wherever his humans are.
Tank hasn’t had much guidance in life so far, so he’s starting his training journey from scratch. At the moment he doesn’t know basic commands and he’s still learning toilet training, but he’s keen to please and with patience, routine and consistency he’ll quickly learn the ropes.
Despite his Kelpie heritage, Tank isn’t a high-octane working dog. He has normal puppy energy and can get a bit excited at times, but mostly he just wants attention, cuddles and to be part of the family.
Tank’s coat is low shedding and easy to maintain, usually just needing a small trim around his eyes. He also loves bath time and is very easy to wash.
He’s curious about cats and can interact with them under supervision. Like many young dogs he may chase if not guided, so continued training will help him become the very best version of himself.
Tank is a sweet, affectionate young dog who simply wants someone to love him and show him the way. With a little patience and guidance, he will make a wonderful companion.
