Bowie - Golden Retriever and Basset Hound Dog for Adoption in Jay, New York

Meet adorable Bowie! Bowie is a 1 year old male Golden Retriever/Basset Hound mix weighing 29 pounds. He is healthy and fully housetrained. He has good energy although the basset hound in him keeps the golden part of him calm, cool and collected. He loves quiet time, running, toys, tug-of-war, walks, swimming, car rides, climbing, fetch, digging, and being home alone. He is comfortable men, women, kids and older people as well. Bowie does really well with big dogs, little dogs, cats—and he doesn’t bother chickens.
Bowie is convinced the whole world exists to pet him—and he’s usually right! This social butterfly greets every person and dog like an old friend, always ready for playtime or a good cuddle. Curious, playful, and lap-loving, he thrives on companionship yet handles alone time just fine.
Ideal home:
A family (or active individual) who can match his medium energy with daily walks, fetch, and adventure. He’ll do wonderfully with kids of any age, other pets, and even a backyard full of chickens. If you are looking for a friendly, affectionate buddy who believes every day is the best day ever, Bowie is ready to love you right back.

The Basset Hound is a unique and recognizable breed known for its long body, droopy ears, and soulful eyes. Originating from France, they were originally bred for hunting small game like rabbits due to their keen sense of smell and sturdy build. Despite their laid back and affectionate nature, Basset Hounds are also persistent and independent thinkers, which can make training a bit challenging. With their low energy levels and love for lounging, they make wonderful companion dogs for families seeking a loyal and easygoing pet.

The Golden Retriever is a friendly, intelligent, and gentle dog breed known for its golden colored, water repellent coat. They are highly sociable and great with families, children, and other pets, making them popular as therapy and service dogs. With a love for outdoor activities and water, Golden Retrievers excel in various dog sports like agility and obedience. They require regular exercise, mental stimulation, and grooming to maintain their health and happiness. Overall, the Golden Retriever is a versatile and beloved companion dog breed.
