My story

　　Bower is my name and I'm quite the handsome guy.

　　I'm not a hundred percent comfortable with all things in the world, but I have been getting better.

　　Men are most often what I'm fearful of, but gentle and slow is the key - and give me time.

　　What I do feel comfortable with is other dogs and most children. I bond pretty quickly with them and would do best in a home with a dog in the home to teach me all the dog things I need to know. I love yummy treats too and I will explore new things when left to my own quiet nature. I love going outside to run and wrestle with my furry brother (a dog my size), and nap in the sunshine. At this stage in my confidence development, a fenced in yard is going to be very helpful so if you don’t have one, let’s talk to staff about some other plans to help me.

　　So far I’m pretty gentle on toys and take my time with chews.

　　I love my crate, which makes me a weird puppy, but it’s a great place to feel safe and watch all the household activity zooming around me. I’m working on potty training and pretty good.

　　Do you have what it takes to help me grow and learn?
