Sherlock is one of the dogs that we have taken on from a fellow rescuer who has found himself overwhelmed with the number of dogs needing help. We met him in November when we visited his pound and fell in love with him then. It’s lovely to have him join us at the sanctuary!

Sherlock is a young, intelligent dog and it’s clear to see that he needs a lot more exercise and stimulation that we can offer him at the sanctuary. He is looking for adventure and it’s clear that he is going to love life in the great outdoors when he can follow his nose and stimulate his brain.

Our best guess is that Sherlock is a Jura/Segugio cross. He’s extremely hansome, with an athletic build and those gorgeous long ears of the scent hound. He’s very friendly, waggy boy who is comfortable and friendly with people. He likes his treats and we think that he’ll respond well to training. He’s also a playful boy and enjoys running around with toys.

Sherlock gets on well with other dogs, as most of these lovely hounds do. It is in their DNA to work in packs and with careful introductions, Sherlock would be able to join a home with another resident dog. His best friend at the sanctuary is Carol the Ariegeois hound and they certainly make a handsome pair together!

This handsome hound ticks a lot of boxes! He’s gorgeous, loveable, playful and clever!
