With the Florida Panther’s in the playoffs, we want to introduce you to a pet who is looking for a home and thanks to #9 Sam Bennett of the Florida Panthers – he has paid its adoption fee.
Each time Sam scores a goal, he underwrites the pet adoption fee for a pet at the Humane Society of Broward County. The program, called Benny’s Buddies, started last fall and more than 20 pets have been adopted as a result.
A smile as big as his heart! Meet five-year old Tank, our favorite smiling pup! For his entire life, Tank (ID 699247) has known the comfort of a home. He’s great with kids and adults and is a loyal and loving dog. Tank will sit by your side waiting for pets, and he smiles at us every time we walk by the kennel. He grew up with kids, is crate trained, good at the vet, and takes treats so softly you’ll hardly feel it. He knows “go to bed” and comes when called (most of the time). Tank tends to get a little excited when meeting new people, but he’s kind, calm around other dogs, and just wants to be near you. He’ll chase a ball if you invite him, but he’s just as happy hanging by your side. His family is facing a medical crisis, and they made the heartbreaking decision to surrender him so he can get the time and care he deserves. He’s confused, but still smiling and still hoping someone new will walk by and see what a good boy he is. If you have room in your heart for a dog who’s known love and is ready to give it again, Tank is waiting.
