Slingshot was going to be a Princess Palace Pet for Princess Merida. There were mock ups of his design and a possible toy, however, Slingshot never made it before Disney cancelled the Palace Pets franchise. That didn’t stop fans from creating a fake Furry Tail Friends toy of Slingshot. Thanks to these avid fans, I was able to get a picture of the fake toy in order to make a Slingshot coloring page.
Slingshot’s Story (written by Marissa Grubbs, an avid Palace Pet fan):
Slingshot is a deerhound puppy. He was a gift from Merida’s mother. Since his sense of adventure matches Merida’s personality, Slingshot was a great companion to Merida and provided protection when Queen Elinor joined Merida on her rides.
