Editorial Review:

Product Description:
While on a camping trip, Ted Kerasote met a dog—a Labrador mix—who was living on his own in the wild. They became attached to each other, and Kerasote decided to name the dog Merle and bring him home. There, he realized that Merle’s native intelligence would be diminished by living exclusively in the human world. He put a dog door in his house so Merle could live both outside and in.

A deeply touching portrait of a remarkable dog and his relationship with the author, Merle’s Door explores the issues that all animals and their human companions face as their lives intertwine, bringing to bear the latest research into animal consciousness and behavior as well as insights into the origins and evolution of the human-dog partnership. Merle showed Kerasote how dogs might live if they were allowed to make more of their own decisions, and Kerasote suggests how these lessons can be applied universally.

Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent Guide to Healthy Dog Partnering
Not all of us are as fortunate to live in an environment that affords the perfect dog-human arrangement. But, this example of what dogs really want and need provides us all with a guide as to how we can be better canine companions.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Must read for any dog-lover
Anyone who has ever had the privilege of being loved by a dog must read this book. The story of the symbiotic relationship between Merle and his owner Ted is a story of true love, friendship and compassion. Unconditional love in its purest form. In addition, there is a lot of scientific information regarding the innate traits of dogs and other non-human species that left me wondering who, really, is more evolved.

Touching, tender and true, this book continues to reside on my bookshelf ... Read More


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A Lucky Dog and an Even Luckier Man to Have Known Him.
In this true, honest, and touching novel, Ted Kerasote tells the story of Merle, an intriguing stray dog that chooses Ted as a lifetime companion. The two of them live a wild and adventurous life in the mountains of Wyoming, which Kerasote recounts with vivid details.

Kerasote makes scientific detours during the telling of his story to explain how dogs evolved and why they have certain attributes. The factoids are at times so interesting, and Kerasote's observations so astute, that I realized ... Read More


Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Omaha Facts
I enjoyed the book very much. It's a good read and well written. However, I was disturbed by the author stating that the squirrel Merle caught in Omaha was a Grey. As far as I know Omaha Nebraska only has Fox Squirrels of brown or black color phase. I am surprised the author didn't know this. Perhaps he used Omaha as his girl friends' home town to mask her true residence and identy and has never really been there. For a noted and well published naturalist and outdoor writer as Mr Kerasote, I find this lack ... Read More


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Merle's Door: Lessons from a Freethinking Dog
Excellent book for dog-loving trainers and owners. Great story mixed with scientifically provided dog behavior information. Has become my favorite.
