Meet Sherlock

SHERLOCK NEEDS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!! Name:    Sherlock        Best Guess for Breed:    Lab Mix Best Guess for Age:    5 years as of 10/23/24       Gender:   Male Approximate Weight:    41 lbs Gets Along With: Other dogs. We haven't seen him with kids or cats but he can be tested! Currently Living At: Shelter. Sherlock needs a foster or forever home! Special Adoption Considerations: Sherlock is heartworm positive, but this Lucky Dog got extra lucky! This pup is part of a groundbreaking study we are conducting at our South Carolina Rescue Campus that has the potential to change the way shelters across the United States treat heartworm positive dogs.  All dogs in the study are placed at random in either the 2 shot or 3 shot protocol with strictly monitored protocols in place. Four weeks following their final injection, the pups are eligible to transport to the DC area for placement in foster or adoptive care.  After treatment concludes, we work with adopters to arrange a free follow up heartworm test after 6 months, followed by a second test at 9 months.  We are happy to discuss this treatment and which phase of the study this Lucky Dog is in right now! Just email the adoption coordinator - the address is at lower left! Sherlock is Looking For: Looking for a partner in crime-solving snuggles? Look no further! Sherlock is on the case—the case of finding his forever home, and he’s deducing that it just might be with you!  This clever boy is a master of sniffing out treats, solving the mystery of where the best belly rubs are, and uncovering clues about the best sunspots for naps. His favorite pastime? Investigating the backyard, looking for the source of that curious squirrel activity!    Sherlock is a loyal sidekick who’s always ready to fetch you some joy. Whether it’s a game of puzzle-solving with his toys or simply cuddling up for a good detective show, Sherlock will be the Watson to your Holmes—always by your side!  Adopt Sherlock, and let him hound his way into your heart.   What My Foster Says About Me: Stay tuned! Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken.  All of our dogs are working on their crate training.  TO ADOPT: The adoption fee for this dog is $475, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations, spay/neuter, and heartworm treatment.  If you are interested in adopting, please complete the Adoption Questionnaire online at bit.ly/adoptaluckydog Lucky Dog Animal Rescue does our best to provide accurate information about the dogs we have for adoption.
