Good morning and a very happy Dog of the Day to you handsome, adorable Merlin the Great! You couldn't be more perfectly named Merlin, for you sure know how to work your *magic,* and t's clear you have your family under your spell!

It makes my blood boil to think that your "rescuer" was "this" close to ending your life for nothing more than being an inconvenience! Thank goodness their evil intentions came to light in time, that you were granted a reprieve at the very last moment, and as your dear forever Mommy says, thank God for all of those wonderful folks who devote their lives to saving so many innocent, deserving animals, pups such as you! And now, in the loving,caring, committed arms of your true forever family, your beautiful spirit is shining, your heart singing, and oh, isn't life great! That photo of you with "Teddy" in tow is just the best! hehe And I wouldn't get all hung up over that Teddy vs sheep confusion, Merlin! In the immortal words of the Bard of Avon, "a rose by any other name..." (well, sort of).

Thanks to your family for sharing you and your uplifting bio., your heart warming photos with us, Merlin! You are so very deserving of the title Dog of the Day, and your family SO very blessed to have a beautiful best furkid and friend for life, in you! I hope you and your Westie sibs Daisy and Ewan McGregor all enjoy a very special, fun and love filled day of celebration, being spoiled to the max!
Hugs and kisses to you on your big day, precious Merlin!
