Aaron

Aaron (アーロン) is a supporting characters of the SPY X FAMILY series. He is the pet of Sylvia Sherwood. In the past, like Bond Forger, he was a victim of the cruel experiments of Project Apple and one of the bomb dogs used by the Berlint University terrorist group led by Keith Kepler in their plot to assassinate Minister Brantz.

Appearance
Aaron is a large German Shepherd. He has a domed forehead, a long square-cut muzzle with strong jaws, and a black nose. The eyes are medium-sized and yellow. The ears are large and stand erect, open at the front and parallel. Aaron's coat is tan snd black, he has a typical black mask and black body marking in the form of a "saddle" on his back, characteristic of his breed.

Personality
Aaron is an easygoing dog. In the possession of Keith and his group, he was trained as an aggressive fighter as well as an effective bloodhound and bomb dog. He was brave enough to attack Loid Forger even seeing that he could be shot. Nevertheless, he was really scared by the angry Yor who defended Anya about him and Keith, and this was enough to escape from his then-owner.

After being captured by WISE and subsequently adopted by Sylvia, Aaron became more friendly and playful. His great emotionality was also shown when he was really shocked and offended that Sylvia did not clean their apartment, that Bond did not recognize him, and that his own name was chosen in a rather careless way.

Aaron, like Bond, is a mentally enhanced intelligent dog, but unlike Anya's pet, he does not forget everything so quickly.

Abilities and Skills
Aaron's time as a research experiment left him with above-average intelligence for a dog. He is capable of understanding human speech.

Sense of Smell: He is an excellent bloodhound who easily tracked down Anya, Bond, and even the smell of a fake minister at colossal distances. Basic Combat Training: Due to his past as a research subject for military purposes, Aaron might have already been trained in basic combat abilities.

Speed and Reactions: While chasing Loid, he was fast enough to catch up with him much faster than Keith and later he showed amazing agility when he dodged all the gunshots.

Sylvia Sherwood
Aaron and Sylvia are in a close almost family relationship. After she promised Anya to take care of other dogs after the foiled attempt on the minister, she adopted Aaron and settled him in her apartment. The dog looks healthy and happy because Sylvia takes good care of him and sometimes even refuses to meet with colleagues at work to pay attention to him. However, sometimes Aaron has complaints about her, for example when she brings their house to a mess or because of the fact that she didn't choose his name too carefully. Also, they both apparently share a common passion for competition and rivalry, when they were determined to defeat Loid and Bond together.

Loid Forger
Their relationship began as hostile since Aaron perceived Loid as an enemy whom he continued to attack even when he realized that he was not his original target. Loid initially tried to shoot Aaron but later chose to save him by defusing the bomb and simply closing him in a dumpster. After some time, under the influence of Sylvia, Aaron stopped being aggressive and, during his reunion with Loid, showed him friendliness, letting go of the past.

Bond Forger
Since Aaron and Bond were both fellow subjects of Project Apple, the two have been together for a long time. During their stay with the terrorists, Aaron did not show aggression toward Bond until he treacherously escaped from them to save Anya. He began to regard him as an enemy and was ready to pounce on him on Keith's orders. Later, together with Sylvia, Aaron met Bond again and seemed glad to see him, but again almost started a fight, offended by Bond's forgetfulness. He was also determined to beat Bond in their competition in the park, however, when their rival confrontation ended, he again forgot all grievances and continued to play with his newfound friend.

Anya Forger
At the first meeting, Aaron and Anya did not show much interest in each other, because the girl liked Bond more, but he did not show aggression towards her either. However, on Keith's orders, he was ready to kill her without hesitation, if he hadn't been afraid of the terrifying Yor. Sometime later, when reuniting in the park, Aaron showed his playful side and happily played with Anya and Bond.
