All it took for Merrick to get adopted was a billboard, a social media campaign and almost 6 years of waiting.
Merrick had spent most of his life at the Humane Society of Greater Kansas City, until March 4, 2020, that is, when he finally got adopted by new owner Jordan Nussbaum.
“It was love at first sight. What they wanted was with someone without kids who had a lot of energy to keep up with him because he’s a large dog. But he’s still a puppy. I just seem like I was destined to be with him.“

80% of Dogs Develop Arthritis or Joint Pain by 7 Years old – Here’s How to Protect Them
Most of us train our dogs when they are puppies to jump up on furniture. We think it’s harmless (and easier than always lifting them), but for dogs, couches and beds are very high compared to the size of their bodies.
Every time they jump it compresses their back and applies enormous force to their joints.
It’s no wonder that an incredible 80% of dogs experience arthritis or joint pain by only 7 years old.
Luckily, there is a vet-recommended solution.
It’s the PawRamp by Alpha Paw. An adjustable ramp that allows dogs to safely get on and off couches and beds. PawRamp makes joining you in bed or on the couch effortless and fun.
