About Sherlock

Meet Sherlock Holmes, the worlds first canine detective-sniffing out clues, belly rubs, and snack crumbs wherever they may hide. At 5 years old and a glorious 90 pounds, Sherlock is a gentle giant with the emotional range of a Shakespearean actor and the comedic timing of a toddler wearing a cowboy hat. He may look like he's solving the mystery of the missing tennis ball, but really he's just wondering when you're going to sit down so he can lean all his love onto you. Sherlocks Personality: Gentle Giant Energy - He's big, he's sweet, and he's convinced he's lapdog sized. Playtime Enthusiast - Toys? Fetch? Fenced Yard? Adventures? He's your guy. Kid approved Sweetheart - Sherlock LOVES kids and has the patience of a saint with sticky fingers and giggly chaos. Affection Detective - His greatest mystery to solve? How to get even closer to his favorite humans. A Goofy & Loving Bio Sherlock is the kind of dog who trots around like he's on an important case-ears perked, tail wagging, nose twitching-only to discover the culprit was his own toy the whole time. He's a lovable doofus with a heart so big it practically needs its own zip code. Hell happily chase a ball, investigate a squeaky toy, or follow you around like he's gathering evidence for The Case of Why My Human Left the Room. And when the adventure ends, he melts into a puddle of cuddles, ready to soak up every ounce of affection you've got. Sherlock is searching for a family who wants a loyal best friend, a playful buddy, and a big ol sweetheart who will adore their kids, protect their snacks, and bring joy to every day. If you're ready for a goofy, gentle, kid loving companion with detective-level devotion, Sherlock is ready to solve the biggest mystery of all: Who will be his forever family?
