About Banana Spider

Meet Banana Spider, or just Spider for short! At 9 months old and weighing 55 lbs, he is a big, goofy, lovable pup. People tend to guess he's a mix of Great Dane and Greyhound, but his true mix remains a mystery. With his big ears, soulful eyes, and cool brindle coat, Spider has a silly personality that is sure to bring smiles all around. Spider enjoys running, playing, and wrestling with his dog friends, and he’s learning to respect when another dog isn't in the mood for roughhousing. This outgoing guy loves meeting new people and enjoys leaning in for pets. Despite his size and puppy energy, he is sweet and well-behaved, showcasing remarkable crate training skills and good leash manners, even if he occasionally trips over those long legs of his. He seems house-trained, using the doggie door, and at bedtime, he prefers his own bed but sometimes thinks the human bed looks quite cozy. Neutered, up to date on shots, and microchipped, Spider would thrive with a family that can offer him plenty of playtime and love. If you have room in your heart and couch for this big sweetheart, Spider might be the perfect match for you. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
