ADOPTION APPEAL

Where do we even start with this boy, huge personality, huge heart, and you will need a huge sofa….

I assessed this boy back in January and have spent a bit of time with him now. Everyone who has met him and spends time with loves him! It’s impossible not to fall in love with him! The kennel owners at Happas Canine Centre adore him and don’t want to part with him! They have done super with him. 🥰

He’s is your livestock guardian breed, however, he is guardian of everything, think Guardians of the Galaxy but better! In fact forget all the other Marvel hero’s and if you weren’t over Iron man leaving us…well you can all relax now as we have a new Superhero in town and Marvel will be snapping him up themselves if he doesn’t find his adoptive home soon! Meet BIONIC BANJO – Guardian and protector of all on planet Earth. From the tiniest of birds to our human species when you have a Banjo you need nothing else in this world. And let’s be honest look at this magnificence…do you even need anything else??? 🥰😍

This boy takes everything in his stride! He has faced a lot of challenges in the 2 short years he has been on this planet. To name just a few – some moving around, double hip surgery (bionic hips now), and faced tragic events at previous kennels around Christmas time that were traumatic for him and all this is a true testament to his character and the dog he is, a true Marvel Superhero! He is the sweetest, gentle giant u will ever meet. Show him love, trust and a gentle hand and you will receive the same back tenfold. He has a sensitive soul and a truly beautiful one.

He likes to give his opinion on a lot, and for those not sure of bigger breeds or vocal ones they might find this intimidating, when in actual fact in Banjos head it goes like…

“helloooooo, it’s me Banjo, what you doing….what you up to….omg do you want me to come with….do you want me to show you where to go…..what you up to now….what’s that….sun is shining today ain’t it….the grass smells beautiful….lovely day ain’t it….what u up to over there then now….you want to come chat to me….il show you how to do that….what’s your dogs’ name….hellloooo I said it’s me Banjooooo” 😂

He is still curious to the world and wants to know all that is going on, he wants all the gossip from your friends neighbours aunties cousins cat!!! 😂
And although he is vocal about it he is a non confrontational boy. So with this in mind he needs slow intros with meeting doggos, slow and steady, someone experienced and physically able to manage him on the lead. He is responsive to his human handler and listens which is great for training and working with him. He is very adaptable. Not a bad bone in this boys body.

He loves affection, loves to have his people show him how regal he is and give him that massage and those rubs that are needed as it’s hard work being this handsome on the daily! There is nowhere on his body you can’t rub! He loves it all 🥰

He has lovely manners around food with a gentle mouth when taking treats too. He ain’t all that fussed for treats though, he’s more happy with attention which then kicks off him showing his best zoomies fit for the Olympics. In fact sometimes offering a treat can hit turbo mode on the zoomies which then enter flight mode that would give British airways a run for their money.

🏠 HOME NEEDED:
Banjo would suit a quiet home environment, with a quiet family/couple or solo person who is willing to see how gentle a boy he is, help him see the world in a kind way, understanding his breed and that despite his giant appearance and loud voice there is no malice behind this! He needs those special humans to call his own who will help him build confidence and continue to socialise him to everything in a positive way in the world, as he has missed out on a lot and experienced some negativity in his 2 short years on this earth.
He will make an absolutely fantastic snuggle buddy, best friend and companion for life with any human who shows him kindness and treats him the way he should be treated. He deserves to be the only dog and pet in the home. With slow intros to dogs outside the home and training put in to continue this building his doggy social skills.

Every day you will have proper belly laughs!! You cannot have a bad day with Banjo. He is the happiest boy you will ever meet. Everyone should have a Banjo. I recommend it. The only other recommendation is an extra large sofa as the pics and vids don’t show how truly big this boy is! 🥰🐶
