Banjo's Story

These two bonded boys are named Biscuit (sable), and Bandit (black). They're a 5-year-old bonded pair of neutered males, not siblings, but born only 12 weeks apart from the same breeder. The family has had them since they were puppies but some recent health issues and family responsibilities has made taking care of them increasingly hard. The family also travels a lot for work, so the dogs spend considerable time in boarding. I'm at them yesterday and they are sweet as can be. Very quiet, didn't bark at all when I showed up at the door just wagged their tails and looked through the glass. They don't get up on furniture, they're not destructive or aggressive. They love people and seem to tolerate dogs without issues. We tried to test them with cats yesterday, but the cats were not interested in coming down to check it out. Bandit could see the cat way up on the shelf and wagged his tail excitedly. He was nosed to nose of the tiny 6 week old kitten and was quite interested and wagging his tail furiously. No sign of aggression, but of course proceed with caution. <br/><br/>These guys are kind of large for purebred cockers. Biscuit is about 41 lb and Banjo is about 33. They both could probably stand to lose a couple of pounds, especially Biscuit. I walked them on leashes today, and they are not great on a leash. They pull pretty hard in unison. The family has over 160 acres, so they are hardly ever on a leash. I'm sure they could learn quickly to walk more patiently. They are also crate trained and love to get in their crate together both at night and just during the day to sleep. They're pretty close to perfect. <br/><br/>If you'd like to know more about this duo, please reach out. Although they are quite bonded, I think they would probably be okay being adopted separately. Banjo is the shier of the two, and gets super attached to his person. Please see Biscuit's profile for more information about him. Biscuit seems more confident. Both are very friendly and sweet.
