My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

What a sweet, friendly and cute boy!
Howard is new to us and is quickly become a staff and volunteer favorite because he is so sweet and cute. It does not appear he has had much training so adopters should be prepared to train him. He is such a loving dog adopters will have a great time teaching him his cues. He really is a character, unlike his name sake this Howard Cosell will cause your cheeks to hurt from smiling at his antics
Leash Manners: does not pull zig zags needs training
Basic Commands: does not appear to have any training
Cat introduction in a controlled environment: No cats
Good with dogs? Eligible for a dog intro

More about this shelter

TAPS-Tazewell Animal Protective Society was founded in 1958 in Pekin Illinois in a building donated by the City of Pekin on River Road. In 1979, rapidly rising river water forced the evacuation of the animals. Once again, the City of Pekin stepped in and donated a building for the animals. Several moves later, and with the help and generosity of many volunteers and community members, TAPS now has a new home at 100 TAPS Lane. Last year we celebrated 50 year of caring for the homeless animals of Central Illinois.
