About this Dog
Location: NC Are you ready to rock ‘n’ roll? Meet Bowser who is ready to join! He's located in the Raleigh NC area and interested adopters must be willing to drive to him, when needed for Meet & Greets. Bowser is a neutered 2 year-old Australian cattle dog and he is very fitting to his Breed characteristics. After spending his early life in a single backyard, he's now experiencing the world one sniff, hike, and frisbee toss at a time. He has a very appealing athletic lean body figure and he would be well matched with an active family. Water? Count him in! Want to play ball or frisbee? He's game! Here are some great things about him! - Good in a home with 7 dog savvy cats, IF he chased, he recalls off when told. - People friendly in a familiar environment - LOVES WATER. - Walks great on a leash - Kennel trained - Not super barky - Handler focused, responds well - Survived fireworks in the neighboring field to the house, with no super anxious freak out - He is very, very food motivated - He is toy driven (Balls and Frisbees) Heres some unique things about him! * He’s got some real monkey energy—a bit jumpy and mouthy when he gets excited during play! * Still learning about the big wide world, he may bark at strangers or new situations, but it’s just his way of saying, “Hey, what’s that?” With more exposure, his confidence is growing every day. * Mild resource guarding around high-value treats, so awareness and boundaries will go a long way. * He can be dog selective - This is still something we are testing out currently in foster care but so far he does really well with my 9y/o male, but not my 3y/o male. My 3y/o is still intact, technically, so this could very well be the issue. Bowser’s Ideal Home: No young kiddos—children 10+ only, please! Preferably an only dog, or a home open to slow intros with a chill female or neutered male. Dog-savvy humans who are committed to continued training and socialization People who love the outdoors—he thrives with activity and would love to join you on trails, adventures, and training games. He could very likely be a candidate for some sports if you're a newbie. He is great with frisbee, he has one heckin' of a nose (barnhunt/NASDA anyone??) and he just might even be a dock diver one day! He is handler focused. Bowser is incredibly handler-focused, and he’s already showing how eager he is to learn, grow, and bond. If you're looking for a loyal, sporty, slightly silly sidekick who’s just waiting for his chance to shine, Bowser may be your perfect match. If Bowser’s cute mug has caught your heart and you're ready for a rewarding journey with this diamond in the rough—reach out today. He can’t wait to meet you! Contact [email protected].

Adopt Bowser and Receive Bowser's Fund
Adopting a pet can be expensive, and we're trying to help by fundraising for each individual in need of adoption. After verifying the adoption, Bowser's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised.
$0.0 is Bowser's current balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the Bowser, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming Bowser's contribution here.
For adoptions in which nokillnetwork.org was the matchmaker and we have contact information for both parties, we make every effort to contact the adopting family. For adoptions that were not facilitated by nokillnetwork.org, we still encourage the adopting family to claim the contribution by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. The adopting family will be required to provide proof of adoption between 4-6 weeks after adoption. This is to ensure that the home is a good match and Bowser was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Bowser’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
We want the Bowser’s balance to go to the adopting family as a way to say thank you for providing a loving home and to help with pet care expenses. In the unfortunate event we cannot contact them and verify the adoption, Bowser’s balance will remain in our general fund. This fund may be used to match contributions made to other adoptable pets, incentify other adoption-related actions, promote our mission, or support the operating expenses of nokillnetwork.org. If you would like to make a direct contribution to nokillnetwork.org to help us help other pets in need, you can go here. We appreciate your generosity and help!
