Bowie

Hi, I'm Bowie-though my foster family has also started calling me "Bowling Ball" when my big, silly zoomies kick in! I'm still settling into foster life, but I'm already showing off my sweet, cuddly side. My favorite place is right at your feet or snuggled beside you on the couch, and when I want to be extra close, I do the cutest bashful little circles before plopping down next to you.

I'm currently living with three foster dog siblings and learning the ropes quickly. One loves to play while the other two prefer their space, and even as a puppy, I'm doing a great job respecting boundaries and matching their vibe. After a rough start, I'm working on both kennel training and potty training. I'm not quite perfect yet (have you felt these temperatures?), but I'm making steady progress every day. I might "sing the song of my people" for a minute when I first go into my kennel, but I'm getting more comfortable with it all the time.

With my big goofy paws, long legs, and classic puppy clumsiness, my foster mom thinks I'm going to grow into a bigger boy. And because my zoomies come with full bowling-ball energy, a home with very small kiddos might not be the best fit-just to make sure no one accidentally turns into a bowling pin. Overall, I'm a happy, lovable, goofy puppy with the handsomest coloring and prettiest eyes (or so I'm told). I'll be an amazing companion for a family ready to keep building my confidence with continued training, structure, and lots of love.
