Update About Me + Info About my Dog, Tank

I know it's been a bit since I was last on here, but I felt I might as well come back now! I've mainly been watching/reading JoJo's Bizarre Adventure while I was away, and then I just started watching My Hero Academia the other night! So, what am I going to talk about? My dog! That's a good way to transition, right?

My dog is named Tank! We got him back in September of 2014 when the mother of someone I used to be friends with named Big A couldn't keep him anymore. His name used to be Pootytang, or however you spell that. Obviously, his name was changed as the original name had some, less than SFW meanings. That's when my brother named him Tank, after how strong he would used to pull people who walked him. Tank was born in October of 2013, and had already been neutered when we got him.

Tank is a very nice dog, and while he does get excited and barks a lot, he never bites. He does, however, get separation anxiety and gets scared easily by a variety of things. Tank, while he's nice towards everyone in the house, seems to be the most attacted to my mom. Whenever she is not around, he lays around and moped in either a chair in the middle room or back in a corner where no one can see him. He also does this when mom isn't paying attention to him, like when she washed dishes or sometimes when she's cooking as well. He is also scared of fireworks and thunderstorms, and he also gets scared easily by rain, wind, and my mom moving dishes around.

Recently, Tank has been started to limp. My parents took him to the vet, and they said that he's starting to get arthritis due to his legs not going straight down. They say Tank is most likely a mix between a black lab and a basset hound. He now has to take a pain pill every day, and has to eat a chew, which he refuses to eat, forcing us to get another brand that is duck flavored, but more expensive. I hope Tank can still be happy. He'll be turning 7 this year, so he's not exactly that young, but I really do love him.

...Now that I'm done talking about Tank, on an unrelated note, here's my selfie for today: me in my purple dress! Have a good day all!
