Story
Make, 8 years old, 21.5 lbs.
Personality: Patient, calm, gentle, and shy.
Bowser is a true gentleman! This mature beagle carries a calming, quiet presence as he explores the world. Though he can be a bit shy at first, Bowser warms up with patience and shows an intuitive understanding of his human's routines. A country boy at heart, Bowser is still adjusting to the sights and sounds of city life but handles it with bravery, especially on leisurely walks where he can indulge his beagle nose with plenty of sniffing.
This kind-hearted fellow is the ideal work-from-home companion. He spends most of his day peacefully napping beside his foster mom's desk, only perking up when it's mealtime-his favorite part of the day! While he's still getting used to life indoors and isn't quite a snuggler yet, Bowser's love for treats and gentle encouragement are steadily helping him settle into his new surroundings. He's wonderfully independent, doesn't bark or whine when left alone, and does well without a crate, simply curling up for a nap until you return.
Bowser is friendly toward other dogs and with children he meets on his walks, although he remains politely reserved around new people. His confidence is growing every day, and Bowser's sweet spirit and laid-back attitude will make him a loyal and calming addition to any home. Apply today to meet him!
If you are interested in meeting a dog or cat, we require an adoption application. If the animal has "HAS APPLICATION" listed, they are still available to receive additional applications but also may be in the process of being adopted soon.

City Dogs & City Kitties Rescue is a foster-based rescue in Washington, DC. We do not have a shelter. CDCK has a thorough adoption process to find the best possible fit for each of our dogs and cats (we do not operate under a first-come, first-served model).
Upon accepting a new cat or dog into the organization, we provide a basic vet visit that includes necessary vaccinations, disease screenings, deworming, microchips, and spay/neuter for dogs six months and older. We do not provide a comprehensive medical exam before adoption. As a result, sickness, injury, and disability may exist unbeknownst to CDCK. City Dogs & City Kitties Rescue is not responsible for payment of any vet care, including known and unknown medical conditions once a cat or dog is adopted from us.
Dog specific: Rabies, DHPP, Lepto and Bordetella vaccines. They are tested for HW, Lyme, Ehrlichia, Anaplasmosis.
Most cats and dogs will have a house-training accident in the initial days in their new home and we cannot guarantee any pet is housebroken or crate trained.
