Banjo

Watchdog & cuddler. My husband and I are both diagnosed with stage 4 treatable, not curable cancers.
We've had Banjo 8+ years. He's approximately 20lbs. Our watchdog. He was a rescue. Banjo needs a solid sound dog whisperer. He's obedient but he has issues with storms, noises, he can be territorial and needs a quiet place to run. He loves to fetch and run. He is NOT EVER GOOD FOR KIDS OR OTHER PETS. 75% he is a good dog but overstimulation is not good for him. No rough play. He can bite in any of these situations. However, Everyone who knows Banjo loves him. Based on our conditions we sadly can't keep him.
Free to a good home.
