Merlin's Story

Merlin is a 3-year-old, 65-pound mixed breed with the sweetest personality and a heart as big as his paws. This handsome boy is a true survivor — after being abandoned in Texas and hit by a car, Merlin bravely adapted to life as a tripod. Today, he’s thriving, full of love, and ready for his happily ever after.<br/><br/>Don’t let his three legs fool you — Merlin gets around incredibly well and is surprisingly fast! He loves short but frequent walks, exploring the yard, and then curling up for cuddle time with his people. With a medium energy level, he’s the perfect balance of playful and relaxed.<br/><br/>Merlin is wonderfully social: he’s friendly with kids, dogs, and even cats. His gentle, affectionate nature makes him a great fit for a family who can give him love, patience, and plenty of snuggles.<br/><br/>Merlin would do best in a home with a fenced yard where he can zoom safely, plus a family who enjoys little adventures together. In return, he promises loyalty, joy, and endless affection.<br/><br/>Could you be the family to give Merlin the forever home he’s been waiting for? <br/><br/>If you are interested in adopting Merlin, please complete an application here: https://forms.gle/kRAiXcWDSAH5YTFu8<br/><br/>The posted adoption fee includes the cost of private transport to the Richmond area.
