About Bodie

Goober alert! Bodie’s a senior dog with the heart and brain of a wide-eyed puppy. Everything is new in his world, and his curiosity takes him places you would not expect—a real explorer, even when his adventures get him stuck. If he feels stuck or wants a little extra attention, he unleashes his top-tier pout and those ridiculous, irresistible puppy-dog eyes. It works every time. Bodie’s energy is off the charts for his age, and he’ll tackle any playground setup with that trademark gusto and more coordination than you’d think. He understands manners but, let’s be honest, he’d rather break out a head tilt to wheedle extra treats or skip a step. Toys, treats, and life itself—he loves them all. Bodie prefers to be your one-and-only, as he does not get along with other animals. But if you’re looking for a solo act that keeps you smiling, this guy will deliver show after show.
