How do I contact the shelter about Banjo?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. BeKind Rescue handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Banjo on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Banjo if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — BeKind Rescue will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. UK adopters: post-Brexit travel into the EU requires an Animal Health Certificate. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.

Is Banjo already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?

Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.

What happens if Banjo isn't the right fit?

Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with BeKind Rescue early rather than rehoming privately; they know Banjo and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.

Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?

TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (EN). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.

Banjo

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy

Banjo turns 7 in September 2026. He is a bouncy, happy boy, full of enthusiasm, always ready to say hello, and very keen to take treats. He loves a cuddle too. As a large Mastin, he needs an understanding and experienced home. Because of his big, goofy energy, we ask for no small children. We also ask that Banjo is the only dog in the home. We do not know how he will be with other dogs, and we feel it is kinder and safer for everyone if he is the only pet. We can support gentle introductions to life outside of kennels and help him adjust to the wider world. Banjo will need time to settle into his new home. He is bursting with love and energy, and we feel it would be wonderful for him to receive all the attention he deserves. His humans will need patience and understanding as he finds his feet. His adopters must have large guardian‑breed experience and be able to provide safe separation when needed, giving Banjo his own space to relax and decompress whenever he chooses. Banjo has received excellent care, but he now truly needs a home environment. We will provide full support and guidance to help Banjo and his new family succeed. He has spent too long in kennels. Although he does get time in the house and settles beautifully, he will still need to adjust to a new environment and routine. Banjo needs space. He loves to run, do zoomies, and enjoy himself. He would also appreciate a quiet area of his own for resting and settling in. This boy has so much love to give. He adores everyone at the kennels, but we know he needs a sofa to call his own… or a lovely big comfy bed! Banjo has had surgery on both hips due to hip dysplasia. He is now affectionately known as “Bionic Hips” because he bounds and jumps around with confidence and comfort. Other than this, he is fully fit and ready for adventures—with slow, steady build‑ups of course. He is currently in Barrow‑Upon‑Humber. Multiple meet‑and‑greets will be required. Home checks and an adoption fee apply. If you would like to know more about Banjo or feel you may be the right match for him, please get in touch for a chat. • Large Breed (Mastin) Experience Banjo needs humans who understand guardian breeds and their unique needs. He thrives with one‑to‑one attention and would prefer to be the only pet. He is very big and very bouncy—an unsafe combination around small children. Banjo loves to run, play, and do zoomies. He needs room to stretch his legs. He gives so much affection and deserves the same in return. He will need support as he settles, decompresses, and gets to know his new environment. • A Commitment to Positive, Reward‑Based Training — NOT NEGOTIABLE Banjo must be supported with kind, force‑free methods only.

About Banjo

What life with Banjo looks like

Banjo is a large puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at BeKind Rescue in United Kingdom.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇬🇧Adopting from United Kingdom

UK shelters work under the Pet Travel Scheme (post-Brexit, the EU pet passport is not valid; a UK Animal Health Certificate is required for travel into the EU). Most UK rescues focus on domestic placements but some work with EU partners.
