Story
Meet Bowie!
Bowie is a 1-year-old Border Collie (we're getting him DNA tested!) weighing about 40 pounds, and he’s the perfect blend of playful, smart, and sweet. Like a true Border Collie, Bowie is incredibly intelligent and loves having something to do—whether that’s solving a puzzle toy, playing fetch, or inventing his own games.
One of Bowie’s cutest tricks is entertaining himself with his toys. He’ll toss them up in the air and leap up to catch them all by himself (yes, it’s as adorable as it sounds). We’re pretty sure he’d be a natural at Frisbee, too! Bowie loves going to the dog park and playing with other dogs, and before the cold weather hit he was getting pretty good at fetch.
Bowie is also a very intuitive boy who pays close attention to his people. When someone he loved got hurt and upset, Bowie immediately came over to comfort them with kisses and cuddles. He forms strong bonds and gets very excited to see his favorite humans—sometimes greeting them with happy whining and little “love nibbles” because he just can’t contain his joy.
He enjoys cuddling, though like many young, active dogs he can get bored if there isn’t enough going on. When he’s tired, though, he’s perfectly happy to sprawl across your lap and soak up the snuggles.
Bowie is good with dogs and kids and would thrive in a home that can keep his smart Border Collie brain engaged with play, training, and activity. He previously did well walking on leash and responding to commands in public, and with a little consistency he’ll likely pick those skills right back up.
If you’re looking for a fun, affectionate, and clever companion who will keep you laughing and shower you with love, Bowie might just be your guy. Apply to adopt at www.rescue330.org. Bowie's adoption fee is $250.
