Banjo - tornado of fun
Dachshund / Jack Russell Terrier / Mixed (short coat) · Adult (2 years 5 months) · Male · Medium · Oakhurst, NJ
Notes from Wag On Inn Rescue
Banjo is a fun boy who is looking for a new home. He is currently with one of our sister rescues down south but hoping to come to NJ soon with an approved foster or adopter.
Meet Banjo… your future best friend and full-time entertainer
Banjo is a sweet, energetic little guy who wakes up every day ready to play and soak up all the love he can get. He’s the kind of pup who can happily keep himself busy with his favorite rubber donut or a good Nylabone—but what he really wants is to be right by your side.
This handsome boy is doing great with his kennel training and is working hard on his potty skills like a champ. He’s learning the ropes and just needs a family willing to keep cheering him on.
Banjo LOVES other dogs and would thrive in a home with a playful canine buddy—his current best friend is a 60 lb lab mix, and they have a blast together. Because he’s still polishing up his doggy manners (and has lots of puppy enthusiasm), he may be a bit much for smaller or older dogs.
He’s wonderful with people and enjoys kids too, but his excitement level might be a little overwhelming for very young children. Think of him as your happy, wiggly, always-ready-for-fun sidekick.
Banjo is pretty quiet overall, saving his voice for important things—like reminding you it’s mealtime or that he’d really prefer to be part of whatever fun you’re having.
This boy would do best in a home where he has space to run, play, and burn off his joyful energy—whether that’s a yard, regular outings, or an active household.
If you’re looking for a loyal, playful, and loving companion who will keep you smiling every day, Banjo just might be your guy
Banjo is fixed, microchipped and up to date on vaccines. His adoption donation is $500.
-
Adopting a dog is a commitment that will require annual veterinary care at a minimum, training, exercise, enrichment, etc. Pet care is not cheap or easy and adopters should consider the costs, time and training prior to adoption. After all these dogs have been through they deserve a loving, committed home.
