Handsome HOLMES is on the case to find himself a forever home!
Holmes is a 1 year old shepherd mix and weighs 60 lbs. Poor Holmes was found running around in the street with another dog (presumed to be his sibling), who was aptly named Watson. Both went to the over crowded and chaotic city shelter and Watson was adopted fairly quickly, leaving poor Holmes behind, lost without his brother, and sadly being put onto the dreaded At Risk list. Thankfully, Holmes survived because of a wonderful foster who is now caring for Holmes in NYC and he is learning all about being a dog. Holmes does absolutely amazing in the home and with his foster, a "sweet cuddle bug who loves belly rub."
Some of Holmes's hobbies include working to get out jerky treats stuffed in kongs and chewing on elk antlers or a good cow ear. Scratching behind the right side of his head is his spot and gets his back leg moving. Although we do hope that in time Holmes will be able to live with another dog (since he came in with Watson and most likely lived with him), but right now for him, he needs a solo pet home or a home where pets can be separated. Although he is absolutely stunning in real life, Holmes needs a little help when venturing outside the home.
Holmes will need an experienced owner to continue teaching Holmes how to be his best self. Out and about, Holmes is learning and making progress but he needs an adopter willing to provide the consistency and positive reinforcement he needs. He is terrified of unfamiliar people in Manhattan and he really needs a home with a more secluded / private yard. Therefore, we are looking for a foster for Holmes as well as an adopter. Holmes has just been through so much in his short life, but really is a good boy inside - we just know in the right home he will crack his own case and be a wonderful companion! Holmes is house trained, fully vetted, has an appointment to be neutered, is microchipped and ready to curl up with you on the couch!
If you can open your heart and home to dear Holmes, please contact AmsterDog by call/text at 917-689-8414 or by email at info@amsterdog.org. Apply to adopt Holmes at AmsterDog.org.
Holmes is currently being fostered in Southhampton, NY (Long Island) but reasonable transportation is provided for approved adopters!
Thanks for caring about a pet in need!

AmsterDog Rescue does not have its own facility. Instead, we rely on fosters to care for our beloved animals. Our available animals may change depending on your location and we do transport animals for adoptions within a reasonable distance. Since you will possibly be speaking with and meeting a foster directly, an application must be filled out prior to meet and greets.
