We had so many people coming to our Deaf Dogs Rock Facebook page sharing this adorable deaf 6 month old puppy named Banjo’s. It seemed everyone was sharing his urgent plea. A small rescue named Lovable Paws Rescue in Hardeeville, SC offered to pull Banjo to safety.
Lovable Paws Rescue is a smaller rescue run by Steve Allen who only takes in a couple of “special needs” dogs at a time. Steve works hard to get each dog gets healthy and he starts working on the dog’s house training as well as socialization. Once the dog is healthy and has been evaluated (likes and dislikes) then he starts looking for a loving and safe home for each dog.
After communicating with Steve and getting copies of his 501c3 paperwork, Deaf Dogs Rock decided we would go ahead and sponsor Banjo so we can help Steve out with some of Banjo’s costs. Before Steve picked up Banjo the shelter reported Banjo is a light HW+. Hopefully Steve can start HW Treatment right and as soon as he gets the okay from the Vet he can get Banjo neutered so he can find a loving forever home.
Thanks to all of you who support Deaf Dogs Rock so we can help out pups like Banjo here and at the same time give financial support to smaller rescues who have limited funds.
Thanks Steve for taking Banjo under your rescue wings and giving him a safe harbor.
You all ROCK! ~ Christina, Nitro, Bud and Bowie – Deaf Dogs Rock
