Banjo's Story

Meet Banjo, a 2–3 year old terrier mix weighing in at 35 pounds. He looks like a cross of the Target bullseye dog with a little bit of husky maybe and a little bit more of ???. Everyone knows that mutts are definitely the best, and Banjo lives up to that. Banjo is very new to Rover Rescue and I don't have any information on what landed him in a shelter. It's evident that this boy belonged to someone and was loved. He is housebroken, crate trained and walks great on a leash. He loves playing with the squeaky toys in the house and also loves people food! The small resident senior beagle is not a fan of him and is letting him know to back off, and he's been doing so. He began in a foster home with two larger males, and that wasn't a great fit for him. We suspect it is because he was recently neutered and still feels the need to be the top male in the pack. When I went to pick him up, Banjo was in a fenced in yard with a medium-size female, (Furby, who is also on this site), and they were having a great time. I think a small to medium-size female who loves to run and play would be a great match for him. A fenced yard is not necessary since he's so good on a leash, but he'd love one to run around in. In the short time I've had him, I have no doubt that Banjo would be a wonderful companion for someone. Probably better in a home with older kids as he's still a little mouthy. Banjo is not a barker; I haven't even heard him bark yet. He is very vocal with the noises he makes, which is why I'm thinking there might be a little husky in him. If you'd like to find out more about Banjo, please call Teri at 630-897-7454. He is neutered, microchipped and current on vaccinations. His adoption fee is $275.<br/><br/>Adoption fee includes:<br/>- microchip<br/>- spay/neuter<br/>- age appropriate vaccinations: Bordetella, DH(L)PP, rabies<br/>- heartworm preventive and flea/tick preventive <br/>- deworming
