Meet Murphy

ADOPT (OR FOSTER-TO-ADOPT) MURPHY
Attention all dog lovers! Are you ready to take your "fur-ever" friendship to the next level? Meet Murphy, the dog with a TON of personality (and a few quirks, but hey, who doesn't have a few of those?). This young, 40-pound stud is looking for a new place to call home, or at least crash for a little while as a foster.

Murphy is a man who knows what he wants - sometimes. He loves attention, but he also knows when it's time to give his human some space. He's like that roommate who's always down for a good time, but never overstays his welcome.

If you're looking for a wingman for your pup, Murphy is your guy. He's great with other dogs and loves to explore the great outdoors. Plus, he's already crate trained and knows how to use a doggy door (he's basically a doggy genius).

Now, let's talk about Murphy's baggage. Don't worry, it's not like he's carrying around a suitcase full of dirty socks (although he does love to sniff socks, so maybe that's not totally out of the question). Murphy is sensitive to loud noises and certain kitchen appliances (he's clearly not a fan of Gordon Ramsay). But hey, we all have our quirks, right? With a little patience and TLC, we're sure Murphy will get over his fear of blenders and become the bestest friend you could ever ask for.

The ideal home for Murphy would be without young children or cats/other small animals. He will need patient forever people who will give him the space and time to adjust to them and their home.

Added bonus for any adopter or even foster is that Murphy is currently boarding with our trainer while we search for a home for him, so any adopter, foster or foster-to-adopt family will get some expert advice from our trainer about bringing Murphy into your home!

So, what are you waiting for? Fill out that application and get ready to meet your new best friend (or at least your new temporary roommate). Adopt, foster, or foster-to-adopt Murphy today!
