About
Bowie is simply the best. This sweet, friendly 14-year-old beagle found himself at an animal shelter after his 93-year-old owner, who has dementia, could no longer care for him and moved into a nursing home. Helping pets like Bowie is at the heart of our mission. Tyson's Place Animal Rescue exists to assist terminally ill people with caring for their pets and finding new families for their pets. When we learned Bowie was sitting in a shelter, we knew we had to help. We brought him into our rescue and placed him in a foster home, where he is proving every day what a wonderful companion he is. In his foster home, Bowie lives successfully with other small dogs and actually tries to get them to play with him. He is great with kids and recently met his first cat without any issues. He is housebroken, walks nicely on a leash, and loves being with his people. Because his elderly owner was home most of the time, Bowie is accustomed to constant companionship and truly enjoys having someone nearby. He would love a retired adopter or someone who works from home so he can continue being a faithful companion. Bowie is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and has received comprehensive veterinary care, including full bloodwork, a chest X-ray, and a dental cleaning. He does require two daily medications, and Tyson's Place will help cover the cost of those medications for the first six months after adoption.
