A little about them
Meet Bowie, a loyal five-and-a-half-year-old German Shepherd/Siberian Husky mix in Castle Rock, Colorado. Weighing 65 pounds, he is calm, affectionate, playful, and devoted to his trusted people. Bowie enjoys sunshine, leisurely walks, car rides, stuffed animals, cozy naps, and playful Husky-style howls.
Ideal Home
Bowie thrives in a calm, adults-only home with a low-key lifestyle, thoughtful visitor introductions, and consistent routines. He needs to be the only dog in the home, but he has happily lived with a cat for many years. Bowie communicates when he needs space and has experienced two bite incidents after being unexpectedly hurt or startled when stepped on or fallen onto.
Ongoing Health
Bowie is healthy, neutered, microchipped, house-trained, and current on vaccinations. He eats Hill's Science Diet to support his sensitive stomach.
Training & Support
Bowie has completed formal obedience training and knows sit, down, shake, and circle. He comes when called, travels beautifully, enjoys car rides, and settles peacefully when left alone. His guardians have worked extensively with a professional trainer to address earlier leash reactivity, and he has done very well since then.
Application Details
- Bowie will remain with his current family until a suitable new home is found.
- Long-distance adoption is welcome.
- Applications begin by contacting the provider through Wags.
Transportation
Long-distance adoption is welcome, but no specific transportation method is described.
