Bowie's Story

Bowie is little and mighty! He can be a flight risk until he decompresses in new environment, within 72 hours he will relax. He is playful, house trained, cuddly and great with people and other dogs, but he does have a few boundaries that need to be respected. When playtime gets a little too exciting, Bowie can become overstimulated and may get snippy with the dog he is playing with, so his play should be supervised and breaks given when needed.<br/><br/>Bowie also doesn't like being overwhelmed by new people. Let him come to you on his own terms. Once he gets to know you, he absolutely loves his person and is a wonderful companion. Just don't expect him to immediately fall in love with every stranger he meets - Bowie believes relationships should be earned!
