Sherlock's Story

UPDATED 11/14/2025! Hi! My name is Sherlock & I'm a 1-year old male beagle/lab mix! I'm not that big - maybe about 45 lbs. I'm a happy fellow! I'm also very loving! I really love to be petted & loved & to give kisses! I like to play, especially tug-of-war! I've got lots of puppy in me! I could use training on manners still - I'll jump up on people because I'm so excited when I see them! I might need work on housetraining - but maybe not! (My brother Dallas is in a foster home & he didn't need any work. So I might not either!) I need a new home because my former owner's health is declining & she had so many dogs, that she couldn't take care of all of us. She wanted us to have a better life. On Aug. 10, 2025, I went outside for the 1st time & walked on grass. It was also the first time I wore a collar & had a leash on. Needless to say, I was pretty scared. But I was such a sweetheart through it all! I've really adjusted well to my new life & I LOVE it! I walk great on a leash! I LOVE to sniff the ground for bunnies & moles! I'm meeting lots of new people! I'll need a person who can work with me as I learn about everything! Check out my video - I'm discovering snow for the 1st time! I ride great in a car (in a crate for now)! Please think about giving me a home! You will love me, I know! And I will love you! I will be your best buddy! I'm up-to-date on vaccines & neutered & so I'm ready for forever home! Kennel License #4068

Nittany Beagle Rescue's Adoption Policy
Thank you for your interest in adopting a rescue dog & Nittany Beagle Rescue! We are a foster-home based rescue. We hold showings on the 1st & 3rd Saturday of the month at Lyons Kennels in Bellefonte, PA from 11am - 1pm. You can meet some of our dogs then! Please email or send a PM on our FB page if you want to know if a particular dog will be at the showing. If you are interested in a particular dog, or a type of dog, please submit an application to foster or adopt (it's the same application form). Once you have an approved application for a dog, we will connect you with the dog's foster parent. Typically the potential adopter & foster talk on the telephone first. Then if the dog seems like a good fit, we arrange a personal meet & greet. To download an application form, please go to (or copy & paste the link into your browser): https://www.nittanybeaglerescue.org/adopt.cfm For a full listing of our events, please go the Events page of our website: https://www.nittanybeaglerescue.org/events.cfm No same day adoptions.
