Please meet Sherman. This 7-month-old puppy is here to remind you every day that life is fun, and there is nothing more important than cuddles, kisses, and belly rubs.
Sadly, Sherman lost a leg after it was broken and didn't heal properly. But don't tell him there's something he can't do because of it—he'll prove you wrong! He's able to jump, run, play, cuddle, and take part in just about any other adventure you might have in mind.
Sherman loves everybody, and he wants everyone to know it. He was recently at a local festival, where he joyfully wagged his tail while kids and adults stopped to give him pets. Other dogs? No problem! He's currently in a foster home with a wide range of dogs of every size and age, and he gets along with them all. And cats? They're okay, too! He likes to sniff them, but otherwise thinks they're just fine.
While Sherman is pretty close to a perfect puppy, be prepared to work with him on a few things. Walking on a leash is not his strong suit, and he'll need continued work on his house-training. If you're looking for a dog who is already crate-trained, that will need some work as well. Sherman equates the crate with the shelter, so he'll need to be convinced that release is coming and that he'll soon be back out and able to frolic. Fortunately, he's incredibly bright and food-motivated, so training should be a lot of fun.
Finally, Sherman is like every Dalmatian—a stage-five clinger. He wants to be with his person all the time. Be prepared for him to let you know at every opportunity that you are the greatest thing that walks the earth and that he loves you with every fiber of his being.
