About Bowie

Bowie is an affectionate and friendly male mixed breed dog, about 3-4 years old and weighing around 53 pounds. He has a short coat featuring a striking combination of black and white/cream. Bowie's past includes some neglect, which left him with skin issues around his neck, likely from a collar. This sweet boy is food motivated, knows commands like 'sit' and 'down', and loves belly rubs. He gets along well with other dogs, making meet and greets necessary with any canine family members. While he enjoys the company of children, it’s best that he lives with older kids who can understand his need for a little extra TLC. He’s arrived at the rescue ready for a loving environment and needs to be spoiled with care. Let’s make it official, apply to adopt!
