Tank Australian Shepherd Elk River, MN

Tank is a cuter than cute 2 year old black tri slightly larger mini Aussie, weighing approximately 35 lbs. He came to ARM as a stray - a former owner was tracked down who had rehomed him to a farm and didn't want him back.

Tank is smart and loves his people with his whole heart. He is great off leash in his rural foster home and comes when called. Tank is house trained and crate trained and good with cats. He is currently living with cats (that don't run) & other dogs in his foster home.

As Tank's foster has gotten to know him, it has been learned that he is a quieter dog when he's not separated from his people - he will holler the house down if he's in a kennel/separated, but he has proven to be trustworthy to not need a kennel once he understands what's what.

It seems as if Tank hasn't had consistent and fair rules applied. When rules are enforced he is lovely and well behaved. This is a dog that everyone will want to duplicate once he has had a small amount of training.

The details:
Needs fence: no
Good with kids: yes
Good with dogs: some, can be dog selective. Does best with neutral dogs
Good with cats: yes
Special note: cannot live with poultry livestock - will hunt and shake them to death
