My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Murphy has stolen his Foster Mom's heart- this 5lb boy loves to waken her with sweet kisses and has proven to be a perfect gentleman in every way. Housebroken he can ask to go out, or can learn to use a doggie door. His huge personality makes everyone he meets fall in love with him. Sadly Murphy found himself in a high-kill shelter where he was often scared and cold…when he first arrived at his foster mom’s home he was afraid to be picked up, and suffered horrible night terrors. With love and kindness he is now a new man- one who is learning to feel safe and secure. He has become fast friends with the dogs and cats in his foster home and would prefer to either be with you as much as possible or live with a companion to keep away those memories of his lonely past. Murphy enjoys a good romp outside with his canine pals, or walking on a leash and harness. He loves to snuggle up in his carrier for trips and though he may bark at a new cat, he has found the felines in his foster home to be perfect cuddling partners for a nap.
Murphy is a fast learner and will make a wonderful addition to your home- please consider giving this sweet young man a chance to steal your heart too!
