Merlin is an 11-year-old German Shorthaired Pointer with a calm, gentle way about him. He’s slipped into foster life easily, quickly picking up the daily rhythm and showing his easygoing nature around the house. His favorite things are pretty simple: a stroll around the yard, having a good sniff, relaxing inside, and working on a tasty chew. Merlin travels well by car and settles comfortably in his crate when his people are out. Despite his years, he’s still got that GSP spark—quietly curious, watching the world without making a fuss. In his foster home, Merlin’s polite, friendly, and gets along well with other dogs. He does not do well with cats but is good with children. He thrives in a home where he can enjoy a mix of activity and calm, and would do best with kids over six. If you want steady company from a soulful, loyal senior, Merlin fits the bill.
