Ho ho ho! It’s me, Howard here to spread some holiday cheer. As an easygoing pup, I’m always up for snuggling by the fire and enjoying the cozy season. My favorite activities include chasing snowflakes, napping under the Christmas tree, and taste-testing all the holiday treats (with supervision of course!). I may be a little shy at first, but once I warm up, you’ll see my true goofy self shine. So if you’re looking for a furry friend to make your holidays merrier, I’m your pup! I am full grown at ~47 lbs. How did I get here? Transferred from Mitchell County Animal Rescue. **I am currently living at the admission center – please fill out a survey and select a phone appointment to complete the adoption process. Once that process is complete, your adoption specialist will schedule a time for you to meet me in person!**~My adoption fee is $120.00.~Many adoptions will take approximately 1 hour or more. Adoption requirements and tips to speed up the adoption process: Please be able to provide a valid photo I.D. with your current address (If your I.D. does not reflect your current address, bring a piece of mail with your name and address on it) Be able to prove that you are allowed to have a pet where you live (proof of home ownership or a copy of your rental lease including the specific pet policy) Bring along all members of your household, including dogs for an introduction to a new dog. However, we do recommend meeting with an adoption counselor before involving children in the pet selection process. To avoid longer wait times, we strongly recommended that dog-to-dog meetings take place after 1:00pm. Participate in adoption counseling process to learn adoption guidelines and adoption options.
