Here's what the humans have to say about me:
This stunning, brave boy is Bowen. He has come so far in his short time with DDR. You would never know it now, but he started as a matted, underweight stray. Scared of so many things, he’s overcome several obstacles thanks to the patience and dedication of his foster families. He has turned into such a handsome boy in the process!
Bowen’s immense desire to please and make his humans happy has enabled him learn how to walk on a leash, stay in his crate, master stairs and best of all, ride in the car to get his favorite puppuccino! He will need continued training and lots of positive reinforcement in other areas to ensure he becomes a true gentleman.
Being with his people is a high priority, as he does experience some separation anxiety when left alone. Providing chew toys/bones has helped greatly in calming him down while alone. When with his peeps, his tail wags are massive, and he loves to snuggle. He’s learned to enjoy long walks and fun outings to the dog park. This silly boy may even spin in circles to show you how happy he is to be with you!
Bowen needs an active family with lots of physical and mental stimulation to help him become his best self. A big backyard is a must for his puppy zoomies. He would also benefit from another dog buddy with similar energy to learn from and play with. After such a rough start, he’ll need a special furever home committed to building trust so he feels safe and loved. Consistency will be essential for his development, and in return, you’ll receive love, devotion and endless tail wags!
Bowen’s adoption fee is $700. He’s HW negative, neutered and current on all HW/Flea preventatives. All adoption fees go toward expenses like medical and food for Doodle Dandy Dogs and help make it possible for us to continue giving dogs like Bowen a second chance. If you would like to fill out an application and you are within a 5-hour radius of the Austin area, please click here: https://www.doodledandyrescue.org/copy-of-adoptable-doodle-bailey-1 and fill out an application form. This is the sweetest boy, and he deserves his happily-ever-after!
