Meet Howie – A Gentle Soul Looking for His Safe Haven.

Say hello to Howie, a sensitive and sweet-natured boy with a heart full of love to give once he knows you're someone he can trust.

Howie came to us with a history that’s left him wary, especially around his neck. Because of this, a harness must always be used to ensure that he feels secure and supported. With the right care, he’s already come a long way, and with the right home, he’ll continue to blossom.

New people and unfamiliar places can be overwhelming for Howie, so he’s searching for a quiet, rural home where he can take things at his own pace. With time and patience, Howie’s true personality shines through and when it does,
he’ll reward you with the most amazing bond. He really does become your very best friend.

💛 What Howie Needs:

A calm, understanding home with adults only.

No other pets in the home – Howie enjoys a peaceful space.

Opportunities for slow, positive introductions to other dogs, as he does love to play once he feels safe

A rural or quiet setting where he won’t be overwhelmed

Someone with patience, consistency, and a big heart

If you’re looking for a one in a million companion who just needs a little time and a lot of love, Howie may be your perfect match. Helping him feel safe and supported is a beautiful journey and one that he won’t forget. Once he lets you in, you’ll have a friend for life.
