Merry spent some time in a foster home growing up. Here's what they had to say about him!
Merry likes to take his time getting to know you, but if you are calm and move slowly (with treats, of course) he will come right up to you. If I've got my treat belt on he will happily follow me anywhere but gets distracted if something tastier comes along. He has a more independent personality, but will accept the occasional scritches! He always greets people when they come to the fence to say hello. My favorite is when I bring out breakfast early and he's still piled up in his kennel under the hay. His grunts and tail wags and snout covered in hay when he realizes it's breakfast time are just the best! We think Merry would love a home where he can have another piggie friend with a patient adopter that will allow him to take things on his terms. We loved having him stay with us!
