Merit's Story

Estimated to be around 10 years old, Merit has unfortunately experienced two previous county shelter stays through no fault of his own.<br/>Merit is a shy, sensitive soul who would truly thrive with a patient and gentle adopter willing to help him continue building confidence. He peacefully coexists with dogs, cats, and even kittens. His ideal home would be calm and without young children, so he can feel safe and relaxed.<br/>His perfect match? Someone who is home often, enjoys the quiet companionship of a loyal little shadow, and can stay one step ahead of his creative (and impressive!) escape attempts. <br/>Merit does well in his crate and, aside from an occasional potty mishap as he settles in, he's adjusting beautifully. We are committed to finding the perfect retirement home for this charming gentleman - a place where he can finally feel secure and loved for the rest of his days.<br/><br/>Apply to adopt at https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/LUVR/dog<br/><br/>All of our adoptable rescues have a clean bill of health (unless otherwise stated), are spayed/neutered, vaccinated (age-appropriately), tested (FeLV/FIV for cats over 8 months of age, HW for dogs over 6 months of age), current on flea and heartworm prevention and microchipped. This is all included in their adoption fee that goes in as a donation to help us cover their medical costs and continue to help other animals in need.
