Sherlock Hound

One of a kind, local owned dog shop! The wonderful lady and owner helped us out when we needed to get food for our dogs. This place deserves five stars! So friendly and wonderful. Glad we found them!

Seriously the nicest store owners around. If they don’t have what you are looking for, they will order it for you. They remember who you are and what you get, in case your forget.

I love having this neighborhood boutique pet store nearby. Always good for advice and suggestions about everything from the best food for your furry friend to hygiene techniques and addressing doggie maladies. Judith finds great, non-​rawhide, treats and snacks, as well as the best toys to engage a pup’s (or kitty’s) mind. My labrador retriever loves stopping in during our walks, often parking his rump outside the door and refusing to budge when we walk by during off/​closed hours.

We walked in wanting a little souvenir of some sort to take home to our pups. It’s a small store, but the knowledge of the products and the general well being of your dog by the owner is vast!
She asked us what kibble we had out dogs on, we said the name thinking she would not be familiar with the brand (because it’s a small batch, local WI brand) but she knew about the manufacturing facility and that it was a premium dog food brand. Amazing!
She also had a wealth of information regarding holistic care for our cancer diagnosed dog.
We were so glad we stopped here. I loved how aware she was of her products, for example, she does not carry any rawhide products because they are like glue in your dog’s intestines, bad, bad, bad.
You will find pig ears, bully sticks, and fat skins for your dog. There are Denver flag inspired dog harnesses, collars, and leashes. Stop in here after eating next door at Kitchen Table Café or make a special trip here for your dogs back home!

I always love shopping at this store. More personable than the big box pet stores. I drive all the way from Aurora to shop and visit with the owners.

Our dog was getting ill and we took her to a regular veterinary clinic and they said she had kidney failure after analyzing bloodwork and they were ready to put her down without wasting much time at all. Judith is a friend of ours and we told her about it and she said don’t give up on our little doggie yet there may be some hope. She got our little dog started on a specialized diet and herbal and holistic remedies and now Bella is doing fine. We are about ready to do more bloodwork in another week or so and see how much this may have brought her toxic levels down. By the way little Bella is reacting, we think she’s going to pull through just fine.
She seems to be about 75 to 85% herself so far. Her quality of life is almost normal now.
Thank you Judith for helping Bella!

Still 5 stars! These ladies have continued to be a great help to us and our puppy Murray over the last several months! Amazing customer service! Unfortunately we are moving out of state. They will be missed!

Judith, I cannot thank you enough for all the time and care you have given my baby Pearl. Best, absolutely BEST pet store ever. Your advice is priceless. Thank you.

If you live in Denver and own a dog, Sherlock Hound is your store! Great selection, knowledge and customer service! They bailed us out in a pinch by delivering dog food to my front door when they didn’t have the kind we needed at the store on 22^nd. Amazing!

So grateful there is a friendly neighborhood pet supply store! Independently owned with healthy and safe products only. Parking is plentiful. Prices are spot-​on. I love the «cheeky bones» (my term:) which are dried pig cheeks (?), a much better option than rawhide.

Love everything about this place! Judith and her crew are really knowledgeable about all of the different selections they carry and what they believe will be the best for your pet based on your concerns. Our big puppy needed a food that would work with his sensitive stomach, without being too bland and boring. Judith put together some selections for us and we found the right combo of foods for Oso! It’s easy to order, they record what your dog has been fed, what worked and what didn’t, their special dietary needs and also your account number so all you have to do is call them, tell them you want your usual food, and the best part is that THEY DELIVER!!!

The funny store name reeled us in after a nice lunch from the café next door. It is full of interesting doggie treats such as duck feet, kangaroo sticks and pig snouts. I ended up purchasing one of the cute frosted cookies and the cow ears for my dogs. They loved it! The owner was extremely nice and even threw in a few complimentary treats, and gave us ideas for hiking, since we were in town for vacation. Definitely go in and get your dog something yummy!

I love this place!!! Judith is always advising me with new products to try with my little guy. My dog has many allergies and after rescuing him from a abusive life she knows how to calm him down and find whats best for his diet. Pequito loves taking walks to get a new bag of food and sonetime a treat awaits him. Gotta love this place!

One word — WOW. Gwen and Judith are the most knowledgeable pet shop owners around hands down. Delivery, personalized attention, and incredible customer service — I now recommend this store to every pet owner I know… literally. My friend just got a puppy from the shelter who has been sick with pneumonia since she got him. Judith was so concerned for the puppy’s well being that she personally called my friend to discuss a nutritional game plan (this was after Gwen provided 5 lbs. of free food for the new puppy to try). They are available to answer any of your pet questions and will always respond. I am so glad I found this place. It is now my pet’s home away from home.

We have been buying our active pro diamond dog food from Judith for over 3 years now. We are so happy to have great quality food at an affordable price that can be delivered to our door! Judith is very knowledgeable, and efficient. You can tell she really cares for her 4 legged customers.

My gal and I just adopted a pup (named Finn) and heard about Judith at Sherlock Hound. Couldn’t be happier, I actually regretted going to one of those big box pet stores the moment we walked in.
Sure if you spend $ 20 there, you could probably get the same items at Petsmart for $ 19 but they won’t care about you or your dog. Judith cares about her furry customers, will work with you to get the right food for the dog and isn’t a 19 year old kid on summer break. + its local, support local business!
I tell everyone with a pouch about this place!

I moved here to Denver just a few months ago and needed a special dog food for my 15-​year-​old sheepdog. I asked around at a few stores and they didn’t have it or couldn’t order it.
When I called Judith, she was right on it, making a special order for me, and then she called me when it came in.
When I needed to reorder, we did it all by voicemail and text and trust. Judith is the epitome of great customer service. I couldn’t ask for anyone better!

This is a terrific pet store! Judith is the reason why this is my new favorite locale in my neighborhood:
+Great selection of healthy food & treats
+Judith creates a custom mix specific to my dog’s needs & age
+Home delivery is a great option. Arrived home from a long camping trip & there was Taylor’s dinner on the porch.
+She is also excellent with nail trimming with my skittish dog, her use of the dremel tool is much less stressful for Taylor
+After Taylor tangled with a barbed wire fence, she even evaluated his healing wound.
Can’t say enough about Sherlock Hound
Stop by and see for your self!

Judith at Sherlock Hound has been so good to me, helping address the specific needs of my elderly dog. The results have been amazing. Her suggestions have improved my dog’s health dramatically because she takes everything I have told her into consideration and has such a positive outlook on the good quality of life she believes my old pup can still enjoy. If all small businesses cared for their customers as well as Judith cares for hers, we would ALL leave the chains and the vet-​centered options behind.

We are truly blessed to have found Judith. Our lab, Harley, had a tough time digesting the food we were feeding him. He was gassy and his coat was dull and flaky. We searched online and found Judith. We emailed with her and described what the trouble was. She gave us some advice and asked if we would bring him in so she could look at him. She assessed his behavior, breath, coat, and activity level. He also has arthritis. She recommended some food and provided us samples so we can see how he did with it. She did all this without charge.
Over two years later Harley is in great shape. His coat is shiny; he feels great and has more energy than he’s had in the past. I would not buy his food from anyone else. She knows more about dogs than most vets I’ve met, and she does a great job.
If you want someone who really cares about your dog helping you pick the right food, stop your search and go see Judith.
