About Banner

Meet Banner, a clever and energetic Tenterfield Terrier looking for an active home that understands and appreciates all the wonderful traits of his breed. Full of personality and always ready for an adventure, Banner is a fun-loving boy who thrives when both his mind and body are kept busy. He'll be best suited to owners with breed experience who can provide the structure, training, and enrichment he needs to truly shine. Banner is a playful dog who enjoys his toys and is highly food motivated, making him a great candidate for ongoing training. He would love a family committed to continuing his general obedience, leash walking skills, and positive socialisation experiences. Exposure to new people, environments, sounds, and situations will help him continue to build confidence and become the best version of himself. While Banner is an affectionate boy, he is still developing his confidence, particularly when it comes to handling and touch. His future family will need to be patient and understanding, allowing him to build trust at his own pace. For this reason, he is best suited to a home with older, dog-savvy teenagers aged 17 years and over. A calm, predictable environment will help him feel safe and supported as he settles into family life. Banner would strongly benefit from living with another well-matched dog who can be a positive companion and role model. He will require secure fencing and, due to his terrier instincts, cannot live with pocket pets or small prey animals. For the right home, Banner will be an incredibly rewarding companion, bringing plenty of fun, loyalty, and enthusiasm to every day. 🐾
