Description:

Howie is a cuddly darling! He’s a little clown who will make you smile every time you look at him. He adores children and wants to play! He has a fierce bark, but immediately wants to make friends with anyone who comes in the door.

He still has his puppy energy. He loves his rubber chew toys. Plays fetch and tug of war. He is house-trained and trusted to be left uncrated throughout the day. He sits, and is fast learning other commands. He has gotten really good at walking on leash. That being said he does have basset hound in him so by instinct of his breed, he wants to pull once he gets on a track and needs to be reminded to “heel” . He does best with slow intro's to other dogs.

He’s going to be a great family dog, He's house trained and extremely smart with a goofball personality!
