This matched photo of Waldo ( dad ) & Merlin ( son ) is quite striking . Thank you Merlin's family for sharing this with me .
Waldo is really a "wow" dog & should live in a "wow" home . The word "placement " is sometimes simplified wrongly to "free". The term "older dog " is also blurred . Waldo is neither free or an older dog but must live in a "wow" home , either here or placement ; which ever proves most practical . A few years ago I was seeking outside bloodlines & looking for a quality adult male . I traveled as far as Central Ohio dog shows . No one would sell me a quality adult male no matter how much I offered ! Seems breeders will not sell to non-show people or to other breeders .
I'm just a retired USDA employee who likes Cardigans . Waldo will have a lifetime home with me . However I must be practical . I really don't need 2 Blue Merle brothers from the same litter . If someone sees Waldo & makes a "wow" offer for this "wow" dog , would I be practical or ruled by my heart ? This is where I am with Waldo .
It must be so difficult to see Waldo off after spending two years with him. I would know since Hershey is the best company, and I'm sure his brothers are the same.
