Say hello to our friend Banjo! This handsome boy is a 6 month old large mixed breed puppy (staff can't agree on what we think he is! Some think hound mix, some think mastiff mix, what do you think?). There is one thing all of the staff & volunteers report about Banjo: he is so very sweet! Banjo is gentle and kind, and would rather sit with you on the couch than toss a toy around. Part of this is due to a funky leg of his, he has a limp due to a healed over old injury before his time here at the shelter. While we're talking about his quirks, he also has rather flat front paws, you can see them if you look at his photos close enough.
Banjo is so gentle that we think he could go home with dog-savvy children that are capable of respecting a dog's boundaries. He also seems to enjoy other dogs, so we would be comfortable sending him home with another dog in the home. We also believe he would be able to live with a cat. Please speak with staff if you are interested in Banjo, we would love talk more about him with you! Follow the steps below to inquire about our friend Banjo!
Our shelter is open every day from 12-4, closed on Mondays. If you are interested in this pet, please call us at 978-452-7781, email info@lowellhumanesociety.org, or stop by the shelter to request an adoption application.

You must be 18 years or older to adopt an animal. A valid ID is required.
If you own your own home, please provide proof of home-ownership; a mortgage receipt, tax bill, water bill or deed will suffice.
If you rent, please bring your lease which states the type of pet you are interested in and that it is accepted or the name and phone of your landlord so we can verify the pet is allowed. Inquire with your landlord about any size or breed restrictions.
Please check with your home owner’s insurance company or landlord to find out if they have any restrictions on the breed(s) of dog they cover. Common breeds that may not be covered include: Pit Bulls, Doberman Pinschers, Rottweilers and German Shepherds.
For the health and safety of the pet you are interested in adopting and your existing pets, we ask that you provide proof of current vaccinations and spay/neuter status for pets in your home. (We may be able to call your veterinarian if you do not have a copy available.)
A new pet is a family decision and we ask that all members of your family meet the pet and agree on the suitability for your household.
If you already have a dog(s) in your home please bring the dog(s) with you to meet the dog you are considering to see if they are compatible.
Complete an adoption application and talk with a staff member for more information about the animal you are considering.
