My story

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

SENIOR PAWS SPOTLIGHT

Banjo is a 7-year-old girl who weighs around 50 pounds. She came to the shelter on February 3 as a stray and will pleasantly surprise you if you give her a chance!

She is an older dog but still has a lot of spirit and spunk! Banjo absolutely loves to run and play and is a calm girl but also a playful "zoomie girl. At first, she may seem aloof and not all that interested in you in the play yard but that is far from the truth!

Banjo loves to run and come back to you for hugs and treats! Literally, this girl will fall over into your lap backwards and in slow motion for affection and belly rubs!!! She is soooo extremely gentle!

Banjo is curious and likes to explore. She will get all up in your lap in whatever you are doing and then go back to making her rounds and zoomies before she comes back again for more treats and loving! She is playful and affectionate and would make someone a really great companion!

Banjo has dermdodectic mange (red patchy hair loss, not contagious, treatable), has had many litters of puppies, and may appear quiet, sad looking, and unassuming in her kennel alone -- so she easily can be overlooked. Please help her find a loving home!

Characteristics: Friendly, Calm but Playful, Curious, Extremely gentle, Zoomie girl, Loves to run and play and explore, Affectionate, Loves belly rubs,Treat-motivated
