Banjo (Ears) - German Shepherd Dog Dog for Adoption in Centerville, Tennessee

MEET BANJO - URGENT FOSTER-TO-ADOPT NEEDED

Banjo is a 5-year-old German Shepherd with a gentle, mellow personality and the sweetest face.

Banjo came to us as part of a heartbreaking cruelty and neglect case. He and the other dogs were found living in horrific conditions, with some confined in crates containing approximately two inches of feces and urine. Their former owners were arrested, and the case is still making its way through the court system.

Banjo was found tied outside on the property and had suffered severe fly strike to his ears. The damage permanently changed the tips of his ears-but we happen to think those little ears just add to his unique cuteness.

And despite everything he's been through, Banjo LOVES people. He is good with other dogs and is a more relaxed, mellow kind of guy. Because of his laid-back personality, we think a home with older children would be the best fit for him. If you already have dogs, we will require a meet-and-greet to make sure everyone is comfortable together.

Because the court case is still pending, we are looking for a FOSTER-TO-ADOPT home for Banjo. Once we are awarded legal custody through the court, his placement can transition to an official adoption.

Banjo will be fully vetted and neutered, and we will work with his foster-to-adopt family throughout the process.

WE NEED A HOME FOR BANJO ASAP.
He is currently living in a boarding facility that will soon be closing for an entire month. After everything Banjo has already endured, we don't want his next stop to be another kennel.

He deserves a soft bed, a quiet place to land, and a family of his own.

If you can foster-to-adopt Banjo, please reach out to Hickman Humane Society. If you can't take him home, please share. His person may be one share away.
