About

Meet Howie

A FUN & ACTIVE FRIEND FOR YOU:  Approx. 7 years old / Approx. 22 lbs. & needs to lose a little weight Hello – I’m Howie!  Mostly Mutts rescued me from animal control, and – it was clear that I had not been well cared for in my previous life for quite a while, and as I was so matted, I needed to be completely shaved.  Boy – do I feel better now!  I was also fed too much and need to lose a bit of weight to be my best!  I’ve started the doggie salt free green bean diet to help with this. I am getting great care while I wait to meet my new family.  Is that you?  Come meet me soon and find out!   • OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS:  I haven’t met other dogs at Mostly Mutts yet, so let’s meet! / Cats unknown. / I haven’t met kids yet at Mostly Mutts, so let’s meet and best no very young kids that I may bump over, and because I am a bit playfully mouthy and take treats roughly.      • PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL:  I’m a very sweet guy with a friendly demeanor.  I am always happy to see the nice volunteers and I look forward to being playful and active with you.  I can be a bit of a tripping hazard, as I zig zag when I walk, so I should not be walked by someone with mobility issues. / My energy level is 5-7. • SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY:  I am a student in the Mostly Mutts University, where I look forward to learning lots of great commands with my trainer.  I know the ‘sit’ command and would enjoy learning even more – especially because treats are involved.  In fact, I‘m a bit to grabby with them, so my trainer is working on that with me on that. / My crate manners are good at Mostly Mutts. / I've been having accidents on the shelter schedule.  Please continue to be consistent with me on a good schedule, so I can master my potty skills. • LIKES/DISLIKES:  I like my walks and  regular walks will help me meet my weight loss goals, so … lace up those sneakers and let’s GO! Toys are pretty fun, but I especially love attention and being active with people. I look forward to being a great companion. / I can’t think of any dislikes, though I’m sure I wouldn’t like it if I didn’t get enough love, attention, exercise, and training. • MEDICAL:  I'm current on vaccinations, micro-chipped and neutered.  I just had a dental cleaning with 3 teeth pulled, so my mouth is fresh again! I am looking for a home where I will be a much-loved member of the family!  My adoption fee is $299.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.
