Here's what the humans have to say about me:
KenMarRescue.org
Adopt MERLOT! Shih Tzu/Mini Poodle, neutered male, 5 yrs, full grown, 11 lbs. All shots, microchipped, crate trained at night. Accepting applications from adults only home, seasoned pet parents, homeowners with secured yard. Apply online: KenMarRescue.org
At Ken-Mar Rescue, MERLOT takes his job of Canine Ambassador seriously.
MERLOT takes the lead of making sure that all friends and family feel comfortable.
MERLOT enjoys taking quick breaks to rest on the quiet, shady front patio with the beautiful views of the surrounding mountains. But once a car comes up the drive into the driveway, MERLOT is at the ready, tail wagging, smile grinning, and ready for the ensuing love fest and happy dance.
Once MERLOT settles down enough his true personality comes out. MERLOT is most content listening to whatever you want to share with him. MERLOT is a great secret keeper and does not engage in rumors or small talk.
MERLOT will make a joyful best friend to a very lucky dog lover. At home alone on his favorite part of the sofa, he keeps watch over the neighborhood.
MERLOT would do best with a seasoned pet parent, preferably as an only child in an "adults only" home.
MERLOT loves to play and is a great walking buddy!

- A small amount can mean the difference between a vaccine and a microchip.
- A larger amount could provide sterilization to "one more" needy orphan or help us bail him or her out before being put to sleep.
- An even larger donation could cover the food and medical for one or more orphans for an entire year or help cover the vet expenses on expensive surgeries for "special needs" orphans suffering from neglect, cruelty or accidental injury.
