Sherman - GRADUATE

Meet Sherman — The Sweetest Underdog Looking for His Perfect Match <br/><br/>Sherman is a 70-lb hound mix with a heart as big as his paws and a personality that shines once he feels safe. He hasn't had an easy time finding his forever home, but we know the right person is out there — someone patient, understanding, and ready to love a dog who will give that love right back tenfold.<br/><br/> What Makes Sherman Special<br/><br/>Sherman is a total cuddle bug who melts into the people he trusts. Once he's comfortable, he'll happily lean in for pets, soak up attention, and proudly show off his “sit handsome” pose — especially if treats are involved. He loves his people deeply and forms strong bonds.<br/><br/> What Sherman Needs in a Home<br/><br/>Sherman's ideal home is quiet, predictable, and free from small animals. Because he has a strong prey drive, he must go to a home without cats or small pets, and ideally no other dogs — unless they are his size or larger and introductions are done very carefully.<br/><br/>He's also not a dog for long walks or busy outdoor adventures. Sherman is strong and can unintentionally drag someone on leash, so he would thrive in a home with a secure fenced-in yard where he can explore safely at his own pace.<br/><br/> A Sensitive Soul Who Needs Understanding<br/><br/>Sherman is on anxiety medication and will likely remain on it long-term. New places and new people can be scary for him, but once he settles into his own space, his confidence blossoms. His adopter will need to give him the time and patience he deserves — and the payoff is huge.<br/><br/> Why Sherman Is Worth It<br/><br/>Sherman may have a few extra needs, but he has so much love to give. He's goofy, endearing, affectionate, and loyal. He's the kind of dog who will curl into you for comfort, wag his whole body when he's happy, and celebrate every victory by your side.<br/><br/>If you're someone with a quiet home, a fenced yard, and the heart to welcome a dog who just needs a chance... Sherman could be your perfect companion. SUBMIT YOUR APP TODAY!<br/><br/>Sherman is neutered and UTD on all his vaccines, HW, FT, and has a microchip of his own. RPSM recommends children 8 years and older, NO SMALL ANIMALS OR CATS DUE TO PREY DRIVE. Sherman will require a fenced in yard, either physical or underground.
