Banjo needs someone to love! We think that he was tied up in somebody’s backyard with no human attention or dog interaction for a long time. When he first came to us, Banjo was severely underweight and suffering from the worst case of worms we have ever seen. Additionally, he was not used to contact with people and did not show us any affection or much attention at all.

What a long way sweet Banjo has come! With time and loving attention from BDAR volunteers, Banjo has done a complete “180” when it comes to being with people. He is now a total attention hound and is quick on the draw with that friendly tongue. Our young volunteers can comfortably walk him on a leash, and he now enjoys several trips per week to the park for long walks in the sun. Banjo is quite a clown and likes to run super fast around the yards in big circles and then run up to his person and jump up and down next to them. He’s very athletic and would make a great companion for someone seeking an active, eager to please dog. We think he would be awesome at agility!If you think you may be the right home for beautiful Banjo, please call us for an appointment.If you don’t think your home is right for him, but you would like to help, please consider donating to help us continue to provide quality care and training for him.
