HOWIE

Howie is a big, soft, gentle teddy bear. He exudes joy from every part of his being. You can't help but feel happy when around him. True to the Lab nature, he loves everyone he meets and greets with a hardy tail wag and dance of his paws. He melds seamlessly with other dogs, content to be focused more on people.  Howie is an adventure seeker and wants to be a part of whatever you are doing. He would love an equally adventure-minded person or family to take him exploring, camping, swimming and all the awesome things life has to offer. He would love a big fenced yard to roam freely in, or an acreage where he is safe, so that he can chase all the smells, squirrels, and of course, tennis balls. We are completely smitten with our Howie, and will only send him to an amazing home that is worthy of his awesomeness. 

Howie was found in rural Lancaster County where he was roaming alone near a lake, with no owner to be found for over a month.

Howie is an English Yellow Labrador Retriever (the shorter, stockier version of the American Labradors), weighs 95 lbs and was born approximately 9-1-11. He is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, given flea/tick preventive, dewormed, tested negative for heartworm disease & started on preventive. He also had a dental procedure to get his teeth nice & clean. Adoption fee is $400 to help offset the many expenses we have for vetting costs.
