Story
I’m a big boy with an even bigger heart. I’ve got so much love to give, and I’m ready to be your most loyal companion. Let me tell you a little about myself—I’m a mix of laid-back cuddler and noble guardian, and I think you’re going to love me just the way I am. When I spent a couple of overnights in a home, I did so well that they couldn’t wait to have me back! I’m a gentleman in the house—fully housebroken with no accidents, and I don’t get into anything I shouldn’t. I didn’t even try to climb on the furniture because I’m perfectly happy with a plump dog bed and a fluffy comforter. At night, I’ll curl up right at the foot of your bed and stay there all night, snoozing happily. I’m fantastic on a leash and walk calmly by your side—no pulling, no fuss. I love treats and chewies, and I’ll sit politely and give you my paw in exchange for a snack. I’ve got a very soft mouth, too, so no worries there! While I enjoy my walks and adventures, I’m just as happy curling up next to you while we watch TV. I’m the definition of a love bug when I’m with my people.Now, I do have a more serious side. I’m a loyal and strong protector of my inner circle, which means I’m not too keen on strangers approaching me or my family. If I don’t know a person or situation, I can get uncomfortable, and I’ll let you know it—so I’ll need someone who understands that. Because of this, I’ll do best in a calm, structured home where I won’t be put in stressful situations. I’ll also need a sedative and muzzle for things like vet visits, nail trims, or restraint—tools that will keep me and everyone around me safe and stress-free. Weighing just under 100 pounds, I live up to my name as a noble watchman and guardian. I love my family fiercely, and once you’re in my circle, you’re there forever—especially if belly rubs are involved. In fact, I’d probably let you give me belly rubs 24/7 if you wanted to! I’m happiest when I have space to roam and explore, so a home with a doggie door and a nice yard (or even some land!) would be my dream come true. I love the outdoors—whether it’s land or water, count me in! I’ll be happiest as the only pet in the home, though—more room for me and all your love. Oh, and one little quirk: I might have some piglet in me because I love to dig! It’s great exercise, but I probably won’t be the best fit if you’re looking for a perfectly manicured lawn. Speaking of quirks, I have one big obsession: the water hose. I absolutely love it, but if I’m allowed to play with it, I’ll get way too over-the-top excited. It’s best to just avoid letting me have too much fun with the hose—trust me, it’s better for everyone! I know I’m not for everyone, but for the right person—someone who understands my big heart and my big personality—I’ll be the most loyal, loving companion you could ever ask for. If you think we could be a match, I’d love to meet you.Love, HowieRequirements: Martingale Collar; 6' Fence; Misfit; Handler Appointment OnlyAll of our dogs and cats are spayed/neutered, up to date with age appropriate vaccinations, heart worm or feleuk/FIV tested, fecal tested, rabies and tag, and microchipped before being placed in your home.
