For Adopt a Pet and the PEDIGREE® brand, October is all about finding homes for dogs in shelters. Adopt this month for a PEDIGREE® Wet Food Pouch and a chance to win a Homecoming-style photo shoot and shelter donation.
Meet Sherlock, a 5-year-old who acts like a silly puppy! This high-energy goofball is a blast of fun and loves life to the fullest. Be prepared for endless entertainment with Sherlock-his absolute favorite thing is playing with a tennis ball. Watching him roll around with the ball in his mouth is pure bliss for him, and he'll keep you laughing with his antics. Sherlock also loves to do the army crawl, adding to his charm.
Sherlock can't wait to get outside and enjoy the world. He came in as a stray but is easy to leash and doesn't pull or react to other dogs on his way out. Sherlock needs a family or person who will play with him and help burn off his energy. He might even make a great running partner, but the tennis ball is his true passion. Just be sure to supervise him with the ball, as it can get wet and slimy.
During playgroups, he did well in a small group of three with another male and a female. The male was wary of him, but Sherlock was friendly and unfazed by the other dog seeming very guarded.
If you're interested in learning more about him, please reach out to our Volunteer Matchmakers at wcac.matchmaker@gmail.com with the subject line "Sherlock 252313"
