Goodbye Tank

Friday morning Chad had to put his boy down :( He got Tank when he was just 9 months old and nearly 11 years later finally had to say goodbye. For the last year Tank has not been doing well and had a growth in his mouth that we found out was cancer that ended up going and attacking his whole body. He was a strong boy though and fought through for as long as he could. It wasn't until 2 weeks ago that we noticed Tank just couldn't fight anymore so we had to make the decision to put him down .You would think it would be a hard decision to make but just looking at him and seeing how miserable he was made it easy. Chad knew it was the right thing to do as hard as it was for him to admit it. So friday morning we had to say our last goodbye, as Chad put him in the car and drove off I couldn't help but cry for Tank and for my husband. Tank was a WONDERFUL dog that brought so much joy into Chad's life and into mine when I met Chad. He was full of spirit and happiness. I will never foget the first time I went into Chad's house and saw this 200 lb dog sitting on the couch like a human just staring at me, I had never seen a dog that big before. We have so many great memories with Tank and he is one dog that we will never ever forget. We love you boy!!!
