He still looks like a tiny puppy to me...

There was a merlin at at a class I went to tonight, who essentially looked a bit like your merlin!

Except he wasn't red merle, and was a welsh collie and THE BIGGEST COLLIE EVER. I think he was taller than Fred.

But to the untrained eye, he totally looked like a big Aussie. And was called merlin :D

He has grown up so much! Look at him in comparison to his best friend Dolce. I swear I make this comparison shots just to torture myself lol


As of today he weighs 30 LBS!!


All smiles. All the time.


Sharing with the frenchies lol there were sticks everywhere. But no. They all wanted THAT ONE


I GOT IT!! RUN!!


With his friend! Lol all smiles when one of his lady friends is around. He is half pitbull as far as he is concerned


and in other very important news.. Merlin is officially a service dog in training :) he passed his puppy test with flying colors and now is rocking a vest! He is officially housebroken and has enough general manners and experience in public to be able to do a few public outings! YAY!

He's an adorable mess. And he knows it. :rofl1:

And 30lbs! He's huuuge! How much does dad weigh?

Also, does he bounce?? I met up with a couple Aussies tonight and they are SO bouncy! Oh my gosh. One was constantly bouncing off Blaze's head. :rofl1:

I haven't responded too much to your posts, but I've been following the whole thread. I love this little guy so much and am thrilled that he's now a SDIT! Congrats! Please do keep us updated as he progresses :)

I love how all the other puppies look all hyped up and ready to play and Merlin is just sitting there all perfect haha. Good job!


Also, I don't understand how our puppies seem to be the same size. I would have thought Merlin would be a lot bigger than Journey. Or maybe I just have a mutant lol.

I know! I think it's because they have such great gender features.. Journey just looks like such a GIRL! Lol and Merlin like such a goober boy.

Got him weighed/measured today, he is 32.8 pounds and 22" tall at the shoulders
