About Banjo- Dingo
Banjo is an alpine dingo. He great with people- even strangers (a rare quality for a dingo)! He is outgoing, playful and adventurous and has a lovely calm temperament even in busy settings like outdoor markets and cafes.
Banjo is great on leash and fantastic in the car. He knows how to sit for treats and is extremely food motivated- he would love to continue training with his new family.
Banjo is great with kids but can be boisterous! For this reason we recommend a home with kids over 4yo.
Banjo will be around 18-20kg fully grown and would love a home with a doggy or dingo friend of a similar size or bigger. He loves other dogs and has been socialised with many different dogs since he was a pup. He would love a home with another large or medium breed dog (over 10kg).
Being a dingo Banjo is not suitable to be let off leash in unfenced areas as he will not come back. Dingoes should be kept on leash outside your yard. Like all dingoes,
Banjo has a high prey drive and is not suitable to with cats, pocket pets or birds.
Banjo can not live in an apartment.
Fencing requirements:
Banjo is a high content dingo
A high content dingo typically has two dingo parents or a large amount of dingo genetics. High content dingoes are often known as “pure dingoes”. High content dingoes have much stricter fencing requirements due to their climbing ability. You will need ONE OR MORE of the follow BEFORE an adoption trial for a high content dingo can begin.
- A 2.2m colour-bond or paling fence with nothing leaning against or near the fence line
- A 1.8m fence (of any sturdy material) with a 45 degree inward facing over-hang of 60cm to prevent climbing (see here: https://sanctuarysos.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/cat-proof-fence-barrier-to-keep-cats-safe-in-the-garden.jpg ).
- A dog enclosure at least 1.8m high with either a full roof or 45 degree inward facing over-hang of 60cm to prevent climbing. Must be at least 25m square (for instance 5m x 5m or 8m x 3m)
- Mesh, concrete or similar around the base of the fence may also be required
Some manufacturers of pre-made dog enclosures include:

Another option is using construction fencing style panels from Bunnings or weldedmesh sheets and posts.
