About Banjo Local Sweet

Meet Banjo, a charming Blue Heeler mix with a big personality and even bigger ears! At 2 years old, this lovable guy weighs around 55 pounds and is ready for a new forever home. Originally from Mississippi, Banjo was adopted but sadly needs a new family due to space limitations. He enjoys the company of other dogs, although he prefers dining solo when it comes to meals. Friendly and sociable, Banjo is eager to meet new friends, including kids! While he lived primarily outdoors with his previous owner, Banjo is housebroken, crate trained, and walks nicely on a leash—perfect for those weekend road trips. His prey drive means he would do best in a cat-free home, so be prepared for a chicken-free environment too! Banjo's ideal setup includes a large yard where he can run and be his joyful self. He looks forward to sharing his songs and warmth with a loving family. To learn more about making Banjo part of your life, please fill out an adoption application through the provided link. He can't wait to meet you and start his next adventure!
