Story
Meet Howie!
Howie is one of our sweet Backstreet Boys—a group of boys who were among the last dogs rescued after being abandoned at a dumpster. Their story is heartbreaking, but thankfully, that’s no longer the life they have to know. Today, Howie is safe, loved, and patiently waiting for the family he’s always deserved.
At just 18 months old and approximately 30–35 pounds, Howie is a handsome hound mix with soulful, sad eyes that will absolutely melt your heart. He still has just a little weight to gain, but he’s blossoming more every day.
Because of his past, Howie can be a little shy when he first meets new people. Fast movements or loud noises may cause him to cower at first, but don’t let that fool you—that isn’t who he truly is. Once he realizes he’s safe, his whole world changes. His tail starts wagging, his playful personality shines, and he becomes one of the happiest, sweetest companions you could ask for.
Howie is wonderful with other dogs and has done great around my children of 8 years old that are respectful. He’s a calm, well-mannered boy who seems genuinely grateful for every kind word, every soft bed, and every meal. There is something incredibly special about his gentle spirit.
He’s also doing fantastic with crate training (keeping his crate clean) and is walking nicely on a leash. He’s heartworm negative, neutered, up to date on vaccines, and current on all preventatives, making him more than ready to begin his next chapter.
If you’ve been searching for a loyal best friend who simply wants to love and be loved, Howie may be your perfect match. All he needs is a family willing to give him a little patience at first—and in return, he’ll give you a lifetime of devotion.
Come meet Howie. We have a feeling those big, beautiful hound eyes will steal your heart. Please fill out an adoption application to join your family. He is currently still in La. His $400 adoption fee covers medical up to adoption to include vaccines, neuter, microchip, foster care and transportation from Louisiana to NY.
