My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Banjo – the dashing gentleman who looks like he’s always ready for a black-tie event! With his sleek coat, expressive eyes, and charming demeanor, he’s sure to turn heads wherever he goes. But Banjo is more than just a handsome face – he’s incredibly smart and well-trained. He knows plenty of commands, including recall and roll over, and he’s already attended a training class with his previous owner, so he’s familiar with structure, learning, and the joy of pleasing his humans.

Banjo is a well-rounded boy who gets along great with other dogs, loves to play with toys, and is always eager to work for a tasty treat. He has a playful side, a loving side, and a side that’s all about manners and charm – making him the kind of dog who can fit seamlessly into the right home.

Because Banjo can be protective of his people, he may need a few meetings to feel completely comfortable with new faces. Once he warms up, though, he’s incredibly loyal and affectionate, ready to shower his family with love, attention, and companionship.

If you’re searching for a smart, well-trained, and devoted companion who can make every day feel special, Banjo is your guy – a true gentleman in every sense of the word!



Banjo's adoption fee is $0 thanks to a donation!


Please note: All of our animals are spayed/neutered and up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations. Each pet also receives a behavioral assessment to help us better understand the type of home they may thrive in. However, it’s important to remember that the results may not fully reflect an animal’s true personality, as shelter and foster environments can be stressful. If you are interested in meeting any of our animals, we encourage you to first visit our website and submit an adoption application: https://www.acskc.org/adopt-1

Once your adoption application has been approved, we will call you to set up an appointment to meet with the pet! We welcome adopters from out of state to apply!
