Story
Meet Howie, a sweet and loyal companion ready to steal your heart! This charming pup adores cuddling and will happily be your shadow, always checking in to make sure you’re by his side. Howie is wonderfully gentle and gets along with kids, cats, and dogs of all sizes, though he may need a little time to warm up to larger canine friends. He’s also a leash-walking pro and loves playful adventures—tennis balls are his absolute favorite! Howie thrives with structure and consistency. He’s housebroken but may have an occasional accident if not let out on time (he’s an old man and dogs should be let out on time anyway!). Howie does enjoy a good trash can treasure hunt, so a secure setup is key. This clever boy can open slightly ajar doors and will let you know when he needs water or a snack. While Howie is an escape artist at heart, keeping him on a leash or in a secure yard ensures he stays safe. Howie’s love for his people is boundless. Whether he’s lounging with you or playing chase with a puppy, he brings joy to every moment. He’s ready for a family who appreciates his quirks and will give him the love and attention he deserves. If you’re looking for a loyal and playful best friend, Howie is your guy. Looking to add a senior pup like Howie to your family? Apply to adopt here: sayvanimals.org/adopt (PLEASE NOTE: Despite what Petfinder, AdoptaPet and other aggregation services state, the FIRST STEP is to submit an application through our website, not send us a message through their platform. Thank you!)
