A little about them
Meet Sherlock, a joyful, loving, playful, and wonderfully silly Irish Wolfhound/Labrador Retriever mix. Rescued from a shelter, he is now thriving in a foster home with children, dogs, puppies, and goats. He is ready to find someone special to call his own.
Sherlock is wonderful with other dogs and loves children. He is a large, bouncy boy who is still learning not to jump and to respect personal space, so a home with older children would suit him best; the youngest child he has spent time with is 7. Cats are not a good fit because they cause him to forget his manners.
Ideal Home
- A home without cats
- A household with older children
- A family ready to continue helping him learn good manners
Ongoing Health
Sherlock is fully vetted, vaccinated, and neutered.
