Arrival Story: Merlin is a puppymill rescue and the reason
I became involved in rescue. I filled out
an application and asked for an older,
hard to adopt, female. Sue, the lady who
runs the rescue, said"I have the perfect
dog for you! He's 9 months old!"
Merlin was the shyest dog in that lot
of PM rejects. I remember when I
picked him up, he almost clung to Sue,
licking her face obsessively, as if to
say "Please, please, PLEASE, don't
make me leave you!"
He spent his first three days at my
house hiding under the couch. I firm
"No" would cause him to cower.
Gradually, over a period of months, he
came around. It was all little steps:
The first time he took food from my hand,
the first time he went through a doorway,
the first time he came to be petted.
At this point, no one would ever know
Merlin was a terrified PM reject. He loves
everybody and manages to win everyone's
heart with his sweet ways.
