“It was pure love; he almost starved for attention,”Garvis Smith told Dodo. “Getting him back to the kennel was the hardest part, because I knew he was very lonely. I met a lot of dogs, but some just pull on your heart strings more than others.Tanner was one of them.”
Garvis Smith, who runs an Instagram account defending the dog shelter quickly composed another about Tanner’s story. The puppy needs a foster-and fast.
“People are always tagging rescues on social media asking them to help, but I don’t think they realize that all rescues are based on Nurseries,”said Garvis Smith.
Tanner’s story soon caught the attention of a local foster mother, who said she was happy to take him home. After that, it wasn’t long before the New England Animal Rescue Network offered Arnie to shelter Tanner as soon as he was ready. Soon enough, Tanner was leaving the shelter, on his way to safety.
But the beloved Tanner could not go without a hug.
“He was found hugging the staff, goodbye to them!”Jarvis Smith said.
These days, Tanner is thriving in his adoptive home, enjoying a lot of playing time with his temporary family. Eventually, Tanner will travel to New Hampshire, where he will live in Arnie until he is ready to look for his permanent home.
Garvis Smith knows that one day Tanner will become someone’s ideal companion.
“Tanner is a box trainer, an in-house trainer, a friend of dogs and children,”said Garvis Smith. “[He] just wants to cuddle with his best friend for the rest of his days.”
