Quick Bio:

Likes:
My car. I'm his next favorite thing. He also loves Lakota.

Pet-Peeves:
Anyone (other than me) getting near his car. When the cats walk between him and me. Rain. THE VET.

Favorite Toy:
A cheap cloth frisbee that he came here with and he loves to tug on his leash.

Favorite Food:
What I'm eating and GREENIES.

Favorite Walk:
Max Patch in the Pisgah National Forest.

Best Tricks:
He's very fast and cuts better than a cutting horse.

Arrival Story:
I adopted Lakota and played with her and walked her several times a day. It wasn't enough. She needed a canine pal. I began to watch the local animal rescue magazine and found Merlin. They mentioned his high play drive. Perfect for Lakota. They get along wonderfully -- as long as Lakota remembers the car is his.

Bio:
His story is broken. He ended up with a rescue group and was adopted by a policeman who tried to use him to work cattle. No go. It's a shame, because this dog is unbelieveable in terms of speed and agility. The officer gave him back to the rescue agency. Now he has a real home.

Forums Motto:
It's MY car!
