Description:
Merri Lou is a real sweetheart! This tail-wagging 4-year-old wants to greet anyone she meets with a happy hello! She came to Almost Home along with her friend Boston, whom she adores. The two love to play and keep each other entertained. In her foster home, Merri Lou is learning all the right stuff—she knows how to sit, comes when called, and listens when told to stop. Smart and sweet!
Outdoor time has been limited due to the hot summer, but she loves to explore when she is outside. She’s alert to every little sound and takes her time adjusting to new places, but she’s always trying her best and aims to please—especially when it comes to learning how to walk on a leash.
When meeting new people, Merri Lou can be a little timid but warms up almost immediately. Once she feels comfortable, she’ll happily follow you around just waiting to be noticed. Merri Lou loves to cuddle and is always happy to see her foster family. She often comes around just to say hi and will put a smile on your face! “She wants to be around any living being”— a true social butterfly!
If you're looking for a loyal, loving companion who’ll brighten your day and steal your heart, Merri Lou’s your girl.
