About Howie
Howie narrowly escaped death row, but now this blind, sweet boy is showing just how much life he has to give. It takes him some time to warm up to new people and places, but as soon as he’s comfortable, Howie’s personality shines through. Chewing toys and lounging on the couch top his list of favorite things—he’s as much a couch potato as they come. Other dogs help him settle in, and lately he’s started playing with his foster siblings, creating bonds and learning routines with their help. Howie is gentle, easy to love, and ready to make a family incredibly lucky. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
