This helps Dallas Street Dog Advocates with pet care costs.
Who could walk away from these big, soulful brown eyes?
Well…someone did. And that’s exactly how our beautiful new girl Bowie came into our lives.
We don’t know what her name was during the first year of her life, but none of that matters now. What matters is that her future is bright, her past is behind her, and from this moment on her life is filled with nothing but promise and happiness.
Bowie—a petite 45 pound fox look-alike—was abandoned in a rural area, where she was eventually discovered by a group of hunters. This smart little cookie quickly won over the heart of one of them, and he simply couldn’t leave her behind when it was time to go. Because of that kindness, Bowie’s story didn’t end in the woods—it’s just beginning.
She has been vaccinated and, unfortunately, tested heartworm positive. While she doesn’t appear to have ever had puppies, we can’t assume she’s been spayed, so she’ll undergo surgery soon to be sure she’s fully vetted and ready for the next chapter.
Right now, Bowie is staying with one of our wonderful foster volunteers, but their resident dog isn’t quite sure about sharing the home—so this sweet girl needs a new place to land. She is friendly with people and other dogs, though she has not yet been tested with cats or small children.
Fostering truly saves lives.
Dogs like Bowie survive—and thrive—because someone opens their home and heart, even temporarily. When you foster, you give a dog safety, stability, and the chance to begin again. Without fosters, dogs like Bowie have nowhere to go. YOU become the bridge from abandoned to adored.
We think Bowie’s ideal foster (or foster-to-adopt!) home includes a fenced yard and another kind, playful dog to show her the ropes.
If you can help this darling girl, please complete our foster application at www.dsda.org/foster.
Even a short-term foster can make a life-changing difference.
To meet Bowie in person visit us at www.dsda.org/adopt and submit our online adoption application.
ADOPTION FEE Covers: Core vaccines plus Lepto and Flu, all boosters, microchip, dewormer until clear fecal test & spay or neuter when completed by a DSDA vet partner plus any necessary medical care. All dogs are on flea, tick and heartworm prevention and you receive the following month's preventatives complementary with your adoption!
* Adoption Fees:
Puppies (12 months and under) - $325
Dogs (over 12 months) - $275
Qualifications for Adoption: No dog is alike and each dog has different requirements based on breed, age, energy level and life experiences. DSDA is very careful to place our dogs in homes that we believe are the best fit for the dog based on our experience with each dog. All of our dogs live in foster homes which allows us the opportunity to learn about their individual needs.
