About Bowie

Meet Bowie! This handsome boy, along with his buddy Jagger, was found out and about rockin' and rollin'. Volunteers describe Bowie as sweet, friendly, and eager to please. His adorable freckles make him stand out even more! Bowie sits politely for treats and is very food-motivated, making training an enjoyable experience. While he can be strong on the leash, with a bit of patience, he'll learn to walk nicely. At about one year old and weighing 63 lbs, Bowie is eager to find his forever home. He is up to date on vaccinations and has tested negative for heartworms. Bowie will be neutered and microchipped upon adoption. He's waiting for you in kennel 809; his ID # is 19627. Keep in mind that since Bowie came in as a lost dog, we don't know how he interacts with children or other pets, and he is not yet house trained. You're welcome to bring your pet for a meet and greet. Bowie's ready to meet you!
