AvailableHowie is a neutered male Great Pyrenees with a long, white and cream coat who lives in Spring, TX. At nearly 9 years old, he's considered a senior but is still quite active.

He's happiest in a home that can match his energy and experience with large breeds.
About Howie
Howie is the picture of a seasoned adventure companion—equal parts mellow porch lounger and energetic trail partner. Born in late June 2017, he's that social old soul who lights up for walks and enjoys meeting people. Howie's playful side comes out when the mood strikes, but he mostly prefers calm moments next to someone he trusts. He doesn't need to crowd your lap to show affection; a steady presence at your feet and loyal glances say enough. Howie handles outings best with a confident, experienced person who can keep pace with a big dog’s enthusiasm, especially around other pups. He will do well in an active home with teens or adults—young kids, small dogs, and cats are not for him. Pairing him with a large female dog could work, but he's also perfectly happy soaking up solo attention. Howie is house trained and neutered, with his vaccinations up to date. His ideal person is practical, outdoorsy, and ready for a faithful, low-drama companion who just wants someone steady to hang out with. Pick up a leash, stock up on treats, and Howie will be thrilled to join you for life’s best hikes and quieter evenings. They are waiting with paws crossed! Apply now!
