About Bowser

Bowser is a 90-pound bully mix with a heart full of affection, proving that love knows no size. While he’s a big boy, his gentle nature makes him deserving of a family just as much as any small, fluffy companion. He does get along well with friendly dogs, making him a good candidate for a multi-pet household. Given his size and the fact that he's navigating life with one missing limb, older children would be a better fit for him. He is learning to move gracefully as a tripod, though sometimes he still tumbles a bit. Every adoption changes a life, and Bowser is hoping to find someone who will see past his challenges and appreciate him for the sweet soul that he is. He is currently located in Mississippi, and transport is available upon approved adoption at no cost to the adopter. This kind-hearted boy is waiting for you! Ready to meet your new best friend?
