My name is Sherlock!

Miss Judi thinks that I have been an outside dog most of my life judging from the concrete calluses on my elbows and the hair loss on my ears, back and tail. I’m glad that a concerned citizen found me and brought me in to the Mesquite Animal Shelter because they are treating me with Nexgard to help with my itchy skin. I’m also told I’ll be getting a medicated bath. I bet that will make me feel a lot better. I’ve also been shaking my head so they’re going to evaluate me to see if I have an ear infection. It’s so nice to be treated with loving care. I think people here love me. Oh,l et me introduce myself. My name is Sherlock. I am a 5 to 6 year old gray and white terrier pit that weighs 69 pounds. I came in to the shelter on 10/5. Miss Judi was really impressed with my loving, caring, friendly personality. She said I’m calm, gentle and easy-going.I guess she really likes me. I liked her too and followed her around everywhere. I am loyal to the people I love. When Miss Judi sat down I went to her to have my ears scratched. That felt really good. I don’t know the sit command, but I do want to please you so I would be eager to learn. I do take treats gently and I don’t jump on people so I would love to have children to love. I walk really well on a leash. I was not fazed when I met other dogs. And I did do my business in the yard. We both agree that I deserve to be coddled and loved as an inside dog. Soft blankets or a bed would be heavenly!
