Tank is a 2-year-old English Bulldog in Wilmington, NC, who needs $1,800 for CT scan with contrast, labs, and urinalysis.

We got Tank when he was young but not in the true puppy stage. We were told he was returned to the breeder for an unknown reason and then sold again. We found him on Craigslist and purchased him as the person said she couldn't afford a dog anymore. He lives at home with myself, my girlfriend, and his best friend our 7 yr old daughter. His other playmate is our Shepherd Sasha.

When Tank isn't taking the normal Bulldog nap he loves to play. He likes to play tug of war with Sasha and run thru the yard. Tank loves people and will lick you to death when saying hello. He's the first one to greet you when you come to our home. He loves to snuggle up with our daughter . When Tank is sleeping you can hear his snoring throughout the house.

Covid has hurt us financially like many others. My girlfriend lost her job and our daughter is home from school. I have the only income in the house and it's a struggle. Tank is part of our family. He makes us laugh and smile. He is my daughters best friend. We love our boy.

We began to notice Tank urinating a lot and the urine began to look a dark yellow and had a strong odor. We also witnessed Tank dribbling pee from his rectum at times. I began to research why he may be dribbling pee form his hind end. I found a rare condition called a urethral fistula. The vet treating Tank is Eastern Carolina Veterinary Referral. Dr Gulledge .He seems to agree with my concern

Tank has his 2 k9 teeth that stick out certain times. If you say Tank show me your teeth he gives you a doggy smile and shows those teeth. Also if you make eye contact with Tank and tilt your head he will tilt his the same direction as you. When sleeping you can tickle his jowls and he will let out a loud snore and flip over to his back. Tank is also a bed hog and will steal your blankets.
