💀 Remember Tank?💉💉He came close 💀. The growly Rottweiler? Yes… Some said his growls were aggressive. Some didn’t like the “looks” he gave. 🤦♀️ 🐕 Though we always approach dogs by temperament, having knowledge of breed specific tendencies is very helpful. In this case, it likely prevented Tank from taking a final walk to the vet 💀 🤔 Some breeds vocalize more and or differently than others, hence the “Rottie Rumble.” In addition, they were bred to be suspicious of strangers and vigilant guard dogs. They require a period of acclimation and relationship building! 💪 Again, as dog professionals, especially in the shelter and rescue community, we’re not permitted to dislike any one particular dog. If you do, I’m sure you can learn “want fries with that?” and explore other employment. Or, just mind your business. We must be objective regarding behavior and likelihood of successful adoption. 🙏 So, yes… Tank, the rumbly Rottweiler went home last week with his phenomenal humans after 6 months in the shelter. Thank you to all who interacted with our persistent stories featuring him on our Instagram. We’re also tremendously grateful to the few folks who trusted our assessment of Tank. We couldn’t be happier with his outcome and the overall impact of benevolent leadership.
