Merlot is a lover of humans, dogs, and anything that he can chase! This handsome boy loves to play all day long since the collie energy has taken him over. He loves to play fetch with anything, chase or be chased by his humans, and act like a bull with his favourite rope toy or branch in his way!

He is getting extremely close to being trilingual and loves to learn new tricks! Merlot knows French, and English, but is also coming around to hand signals meaning he is one smart cookie! He is always eager to please his people and figure out what is asked of him :)

Recently, we have started exposing Merlot to other dogs to see how he gets along with them. He's been exceeding our expectations since he is still a young pup and learning as he goes! Merlot is a submissive dog by nature and would do best with others like him. He doesn’t seem to be fond of other dogs trying to dominate him as it scares him making him run away and be fearful. We do not think Merlot would do well with cats in a home setting as he does have a strong prey drive when animals run from him which can unknowingly lead to injuries.

All in all, Merlot is a certified good boy and has passed our adoption criteria with flying colours! If you’d like to get to know him a bit better, you can fill out an application and we’ll be in contact :)
