My story

Meet Merlin, a young, energetic, and playful dog who is always ready for a game of fetch, a car ride, a long run, a play session with toys, or a walk. He`s friendly and cuddly, making him the perfect companion for cozy nights in. He is fond of petting sessions on the couch, snuggling up close for warmth and companionship. Merlin`s curiosity keeps him exploring and learning new things, making every day an adventure. He knows the sit and come commands. He`s a little shy on occasion, but with a gentle touch and a warm smile, he`ll soon be wagging his tail in delight. Merlin weighs 52 pounds and is house trained and leash trained, a testament to his smart and adaptable nature but he does enjoy leading the way on a leash in case you aren`t sure which way to go. If he runs away while off leash, he`ll come back if you call him. He does have a penchant for chewing, so a few sturdy toys would be a great addition to his new home. He is also a jumper, mostly when he gets excited. He`s a hit with other dogs, always up for playdates at the dog and shared adventures. Cats find his easygoing nature endearing, while children are charmed by his friendly, gentle demeanor. Why adopt Merlin? Because every home needs a bit of magic, and Merlin is ready to cast a spell of love and happiness on his forever family. (tw 3/9/2025)Click `Play` to meet Merlin.This animal has been available at the shelter for more than 30 days and is now considered a VIP.The adoption fee is 50% off! -jc (9/18/24)

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Merlin *VIP*SN*, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
