Story
Meet Howie, the 47-pound bundle of joy with a heart as big as his personality! This charming 4-year-old Patterdale Terrier mix is on a mission to steal your heart and fill your days with endless love and laughter. Howie is the epitome of a canine companion, craving nothing more than to be by your side, soaking up every moment of your company. He can't wait to spend time with his person, whether it's a game of fetch in the backyard (his all-time favorite!) or cuddling up for a movie. Howie has lots of energy—but when the sun sets, he transforms into the ultimate cuddle buddy, content to snuggle up on the couch and bask in the warmth of your affection. Housetrained and well-mannered, Howie is a dream companion in the home. He prefers to sleep on his cozy dog bed in the bedroom, and while he may not be a fan of long periods in a crate, his good behavior makes it unnecessary to use one. When it comes to socializing, Howie is needs a slow and proper introduction. He can be reactive to seeing other dogs, but he typically ends up getting along with them. He was around cats as a young pup, but hasn't been exposed to them in recent years, so we don't know how he would do with feline friends. Howie will thrive in a quiet, adult-only home where he can feel safe and secure. New things can be scary to him, so he'll need someone patient who can teach him that the world isn't so frightening. He loves booty scratches and will be happiest with someone who can provide lots of love and reassurance. A house with a fenced yard is essential for Howie, as he loves to stretch his legs and play freely. He requires a house because he did not do well in an apartment setting due to too many people, dogs, and sounds. If you're ready to welcome a furry friend who will fill your life with boundless affection, endless playtime, and unforgettable memories, then Howie is the perfect match for you. Apply to meet this lovable pup and discover the joy of having a loyal companion who will always have your back, wagging tail and all! His minimum adoption fee is $195, plus a $15 rabies transfer fee for McLean County residents. He has been neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm checked, dewormed, and is on flea and heartworm preventatives.
