Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hello, my name is Merlin and I’m here to sweep you off your feet. I’m a dashing Border Collie mix with a striking white and black coat. At 2-3 years old and around 40 pounds, I’m the perfect blend of brains and brawn. My captivating blue eyes will have you falling head over paws!
I’m a high-energy guy, always ready for an adventure. Whether it’s chasing a ball, exploring the great outdoors, or learning new tricks, count me in! I’m super smart and a quick learner – especially if treats are involved. I’m not just about playtime; I’m a cuddler too! Belly rubs? Yes, please! I thrive on human attention and will happily sit in your lap – even if I’m a bit bigger than your average lap dog.
Now, let’s talk about my quirks. I’m not a fan of crates – they cramp my style. And watch out for your ankles – my herding instincts kick in, and I might try a playful nip. But fear not! With some guidance, I’ll learn what’s appropriate. I’ve been in boarding because of my escape artist skills (I’m like Houdini with fences!). But what I really want is a family to call my own. Maybe you’re the one? Let’s embark on this beautiful journey together!
I am selective with other dogs. I have not been cat-tested but I can be if you’d like. I am vaccinated and neutered. I am also heartworm positive and receiving treatment.
Currently hanging out in Lewisville, NC, but I can be transported for the right match. Are you up for Merlin’s adventure? Let’s find out. Fill out an application today! *Must be 21 or older to apply.
