Shepherd and Australian Cattle Dog Blue Heeler Dogs Available for Adoption in Broomfield, Colorado

Meet Bowie

This scruffy little Shepherd/Blue Heeler mix looks like he woke up with permanent static electricity — and honestly, it makes him even more adorable. Bowie is the calmer, more sensitive soul of his litter who loves snuggling close after a day of puppy adventures.

Bowie's Favorite Things:
• Chasing his siblings and foster dog friends around the yard
• Exploring outside and proudly carrying around sticks or toys
• Cozy naps and nighttime snuggles
• TREATS — he already knows exactly where they're hidden and will sprint to the pantry anytime the door opens

Bowie is a smart little guy who sleeps great overnight in his exercise pen and does well relaxing there while his foster is away. He's still working on potty training like any young puppy, but he's doing a great job going outside after meals and during backyard time.

One of the cutest things about Bowie? He bravely climbs up the stairs... but cries for someone to carry him back down so he can soak up extra love and cuddles along the way.

Because Bowie is a sensitive boy, he prefers his food and toys to himself and appreciates respectful puppy manners from his furry friends. With patience, love, and continued training, this sweet scruffy boy is going to make someone an incredibly loyal best friend.
