About Sherlock & Moriarty
Every great detective needs his nemesis, and Sherlock has found his. These two handsome boys are bonded and ready to solve the mystery of where their forever home is hiding.
Sherlock is a gorgeous Peruvian with long, flowing locks and a gentle spirit. He came to us from dire conditions, and for the first time in his life he’s learning that the world can be a safe place. He’s sweet, cuddly and soaking up every bit of love offered to him.
Then there’s Moriarty. At just 10 weeks old, he came from a breeder and was bought by a teen without their parents’ permission, so here he is, the criminal mastermind of the duo. He’s a wild haired sentient wig who looks as sweet as pie, but don’t be fooled. He loves to yell, and if you’re taking too long with the treats, he’s not above giving you a little nip to hurry things along. The boys have been bonded in our care and they look like father and son, the calm gentleman and his chaotic little shadow.
