This is the Horst Merkle who came up a few day's ago, in referanace to the Hawthorn tiger Tony. I only knew him a few weeks, and he seemed like a real nice guy. Anybody know where he is now, or what he has been up to? Wade Burck

Horst Merkl now lives in western NY and is alive and well. He has shared some of the photos from his animal-training days with those of us who know him at the church he and his wife have been attending for several months. He is most definitely a "real nice guy"! Thought I would Google him to see what's out there and discovered this blog. :)

Merry Christmas!
