About this Dog
Hello everyone, my name is Howie! I’m about 15 months old now and weighing in at a svelte 10 lbs. Very handsome if I do say so. Foster mom says that I am blossoming like the sweetest smelling flower. When I first got to my foster mama’s house I was a little scared and reserved but not anymore! Now it’s all tail wags and zoomies. Some of my favorite things are chasing squeaky balls, finding sticks in the yard, and playing with my foster brother. I love sitting on foster mama’s lap, laying out in the sun, going for walks, and, of course, eating! I’m still reserved and shy around new people but I have a strong and loving bond with my human family. Foster mom says it will be a must to continue to expose me to new people, places and sounds to help build by courage and social abilities. Foster mama and I are working hard on potty training and walking on a leash. I do need to have a fenced yard and another dog in the home. Whenever foster mama leaves me to go out, or at night for bedtime, I go to an e-pen with an open crate. I am doing pretty well in there though I bark a little bit at night before settling in and sleeping all night like a champ. My perfect home would be where my people are home most of the time with me and there are no kids as I am still unsettled by lots of commotion. I’ve never met a kitty cat so I just don’t know what I would think about that! Foster mama says that I am a hoot! She says I walk around like I’m late for a meeting, love to do zoomies, am always eager to be near her, think it is fun to run through the nearby fields, and often flop down to show my belly while wagging my tail at 100mph. Once I’ve gotten some energy out, I’m happy to sleep next to her on the couch. She says I’m a little lovebug! And it’s all true! Now all I need is my forever family. Could that be you? Please note that some of our dogs are obtained from shelters, surrendered to our care, or released from breeders. Each animal's bio is based on our experience of the animal within our care, an educated guess based on physical characteristics, temperament and information shared. Each dog receives basic grooming when coming into rescue, but for some dogs they have not received grooming attention until recently and grooming may be required shortly after adoption. This will be at the adopter’s expense, so we encourage you to research the breed and be prepared for grooming expenses. Underdog cannot guarantee hypoallergenic or non-shedding qualities of any dogs in our rescue. Some of the animals come from situations where they are lacking experience in a home and confidence in humans. In turn, they require another companion dog and/or a fenced in yard in their forever home in order for them to feel safe. If you are interested in a particular dog whose bio states those needs and do not currently have them, please understand that your home might not be the right fit. Please use the filter on our Adoptable Dogs page to find the perfect match for your home. ***Be sure to check your spam/junk folder as sometimes our emails end up there***

Adopt Howie and Receive Howie's Fund
Adopting a pet can be expensive, and we're trying to help by fundraising for each individual in need of adoption. After verifying the adoption, Howie's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised.
$0.0 is Howie's current balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the Howie, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming Howie's contribution here.
For adoptions in which nokillnetwork.org was the matchmaker and we have contact information for both parties, we make every effort to contact the adopting family. For adoptions that were not facilitated by nokillnetwork.org, we still encourage the adopting family to claim the contribution by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. The adopting family will be required to provide proof of adoption between 4-6 weeks after adoption. This is to ensure that the home is a good match and Howie was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Howie’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
We want the Howie’s balance to go to the adopting family as a way to say thank you for providing a loving home and to help with pet care expenses. In the unfortunate event we cannot contact them and verify the adoption, Howie’s balance will remain in our general fund. This fund may be used to match contributions made to other adoptable pets, incentify other adoption-related actions, promote our mission, or support the operating expenses of nokillnetwork.org. If you would like to make a direct contribution to nokillnetwork.org to help us help other pets in need, you can go here. We appreciate your generosity and help!
