About Howard

Howard is a 63-pound bundle of Labradoodle charm, exuding the grace of a gentleman and the spirit of an adventure seeker. At 6 years old, he's sweet and social, with two essential skills tucked under his collar: he walks nicely on a leash and rides like a pro in the car. This dog makes outings enjoyable without the struggle of a tug-of-war. Howard loves a good walk but also savors the simple joy of a car ride, seeing every day as an opportunity for a little excitement and connection with his people. Currently, he’s on a special diet for bladder stones, but he’s handling it like a champ. Think of it as a short-term wellness plan for a friendly guy with big plans. Howard’s ideal family will adhere to his special diet for a bit before returning to the fun of walks, car rides, and all the good life has to offer. Neutered and microchipped, Howard is up to date on his vaccines and tested negative for heartworm. He’s looking for a home that appreciates his easygoing nature and invites him to be a part of the family. If you think you could be the perfect fit, please fill out an application to meet Howard. Requirements include getting to know everyone in the household and dog intros if necessary. No out-of-state adoptions are allowed. Ready to start a great adventure together? Apply now!
