Mercury's mom says: Mercury, a mini Australian shepherd, is the sweetest, most gentle and crazy pup we have ever met. He throws himself on your lap whenever he can and stretches out so you don’t miss a spot when patting him. He quickly learned to ring a small bell with his paw to signal he needed to go out. He completely enjoys our other family members (two papillons and two cats) although he needs to “leave the cats aloneâ€! We had a standard Aussie for 15 years and adored him. Mercury’s endearing personality reminds us so much of our Hero, we are so lucky. Mercury’s brother Blaze lives with my daughter, and when she visits it’s complete bedlam!
