Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Well hello everyone! My name is Murphy & I am the newest kid to AAP. May 13th will be my 4th birthday & I sure would like to celebrate it with my new family! I am a happy rat terrier boy with a tail…..and it wags all the time. Snuggling is my favorite pastime & I will oblige you any time you want. I am also happy to ride shotgun while running errands or taking a road trip. Barking is not high on my list of things to do so I do not disturb people. I never meet a stranger whether big, small, 2 legged or 4 legged. In just a few short hours of being at my foster home I mastered the doggie door….. but I did get scolded for marking…..I didn't know that was bad so I am trying really hard not to do that anymore. This contraption called a belly band has been strapped around me to remind me…..I’m ok with that….Now, I’m sure everyone wants to know my weight. Truth is, I don’t know, but my foster mom says I’m a little thick & need to lose a few pound. If I sound like the boy for you, please come meet me. Murphy is up to date on all shots, heart worm negative, on heart worm preventative, microchipped, neutered, and had a dental. Murphy’s adoption fee is $275.00. WE DO NOT ACCEPT PERSONAL CHECKS. Out of state adopters are responsible for arranging transport. WE DO NOT SHIP DOGS. For events calendar and adoption application please go to our website at aaprescue.org.
