Here's what the humans have to say about me:
IN Tacoma!
Hello! My name is Sherlock, and I was found as a stray in Portland, OR. I am a super charming mini aussie with a heart of gold! I am a velcro dog who wants to be snuggled, loved on, and obsessed over (typical aussie!).
I love to longingly look into your eyes and hypnotize you with my one ice blue eye to get what I want. I am pretty young (under two years), and still need some work on commands like "down" but definitely want to please my person. I am crate trained, and can use a doggy door.
I am good with other dogs, but am perfectly fine being an only dog. I have met a cat and was curious, but not overly aggressive. A home with older children would be fine.
I would not make a good apartment dog, and would prefer to have a fenced yard to play in. I am currently being fostered in Tacoma, WA.
