Update on Tank

Update:  Tank has had his surgery and is doing great (too good actually because he needs to keep still and doesn't want to!).  We didn't raise all the money we needed, but it was enough to pay for most of the surgery (with some help from a credit card-we just couldn't see letting this dog die simply because surgery was so expensive when he worked so hard to help people).  You can see the huge scar and the gazillion staples that are in his back in the pic below as well as the sling that we have to hold him up with (which isn't easy with a massive hound).
Phase 2 is the physical rehabilitation he has to go through.  If you're still interested in donating, even though Tank has gone through surgery, any help would still be very welcome.  Tank was prescribed five different medications and will soon be visiting his doctor again to go through physical rehabilitation to help strengthen his back and get working again.  This of course means more money!  Thank you so much for all the support and the kind letters we've received.  It's greatly appreciated!
