Story
Hi I'm Bowie!
No, I don't have a band… yet. What I do have is a face that belongs on magazine covers, a personality larger than my little Frenchie body, and enough charm to convince you that your spot on the couch was actually reserved for me all along.
I'm a 1-year-old, 25 lb. French Bulldog who LOVES my person. And when I say love, I mean I would happily live in your back pocket if I could. I'm a true Velcro dog who wants to be wherever you are, whether that's curled up together on the couch, playing with toys, heading out for a walk or hopping in the car for an adventure. I absolutely love car rides!
I'm also a great walking buddy. I walk nicely on leash without pulling or reacting to other dogs, and I'm smart, attentive and do very well with commands once I've bonded with my person. I've also shown that I can settle nicely into a home routine and have great house manners.
Now, here's the important part about finding my perfect match: I tend to choose one person and bond with them very strongly. Because I can become protective of my favorite human and don't always appreciate other dogs or people interfering with me, I'm looking for an experienced, adult-only home where I can be your one and only dog.
I can be mouthy when I'm excited and playing, and I sometimes use my mouth to communicate when I don't want to be handled or moved. For that reason, I need someone who understands dog body language, respects my boundaries and is comfortable continuing to work with me on obedience, appropriate play and handling.
I've interacted successfully with some female dogs, but my play can escalate quickly and I don't always respond appropriately when another dog tells me I've had enough. I also struggle at times with some male dogs and can guard my person from other dogs; therefore, I'll be happiest in a home with one person where I get to soak up all the attention as your their dog.
Like many Frenchies, I also need someone committed to keeping up with my skin and daily care. I'm prone to yeast and irritation, particularly in my facial folds and floppy ear, so those areas need regular cleaning and monitoring. My nose also needs daily moisturizing to prevent it from becoming dry and cracked. I came to The Asher House with ruptured eardrums and skin issues and have been receiving treatment, including daily ear medication. I may need additional veterinary care or surgery in the future, but none of that stops me from playing, adventuring or being an incredibly affectionate little guy.
Underneath all of my quirks is a goofy, playful, incredibly loving dog who thrives when I feel secure with my person. In the right home—with someone who understands me, gives me structure and is happy having a devoted little shadow—I have so much love to give.
If you're experienced with Frenchies and have an adult-only, dog-free home, and you're looking for one ridiculously handsome best friend who will happily accompany you everywhere, I might just be your guy.
My adoption fee is $295 and I'm neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.
