Howard's Story

Howard is a total cuddle buddy. He is a big sweet boy that would love to be someone's baby. He is an older gentleman and would greatly benefit from being in a foster or forever home. Howard is 12 years old and weighs about 100 pounds. The adoption fee for adult dogs, seven months and older, is $250. All pets are microchipped, up to date on vaccines, and will be altered prior to adoption. If you are interested in meeting a dog, please stop by the shelter during open hours. Dogs may be in a foster home, therefore scheduling an appointment is recommended. If you have an existing dog at home, we recommend bringing it along to meet your possible new family member. helpingstrays.org
