About Bowen (Billy)
Meet Billy (Bowen) — your loyal, food-loving sidekick
Billy is a funny little pug mix with a big heart and an even bigger love for food. He’s the kind of dog who will follow his person from room to room, curl up close when it’s time to relax, and bounce with excitement when there’s a snack involved. He is affectionate with the people he knows, greeting family members warmly and sticking close like a true shadow. New people can make him a bit uncertain, and he’ll often bark at visitors or strangers on walks, but with gentle redirection he calms quickly.
This clever boy has already learned some fun routines in foster care. He loves his crate and uses it as his safe space, happily putting himself to bed at night or for afternoon naps. He’s highly food motivated, which makes him both eager and easy to train. Billy is working hard on housetraining and doing well with a predictable schedule, even ringing the bell to go outside on occasion. He’s also learning recall and leash manners, though he may pull or bark at dogs and people at first before settling.
Billy’s favourite pastime might just be his bone-hiding “hobby.” He’ll stash and re-stash his treasures in all sorts of places, from behind curtains to plant pots, entertaining himself for hours. Outdoors, he’s curious and adventurous, always eager to sniff and explore, so a secure yard will be important as he has shown he might try to test the boundaries. Despite that spark of mischief, he’s also a mellow little guy at heart, perfectly happy with a few short walks each day, some playtime, and then a cozy nap.
He would thrive in a quieter, more predictable home, ideally with a single person or a couple who spend much of the day at home. He prefers to be the only dog in the household so he can enjoy his space, his bones, and his people without competition. Billy may not be suited for apartment living since he can be vocal when strangers are near, but in the right home, he will blossom into a devoted and entertaining companion.
If you’re looking for a loyal sidekick with a goofy streak, a love of food, and a heart full of devotion, Billy is ready to be your best friend.
