Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi People!
I’m Murphy a two year old Bichon boy who loves everything! And I want everyone to know it because Life is Good! I love my foster family! I love car rides! I love people! I love other dogs. And guess what? I love to play! Mom says I’m 14 pounds of love in the cutest of packages. (Can you tell she likes me?)
Mom also says that I am very charming and that I love to please. She says I give clues about what I need and she knows how to interpret those clues (Mom is really smart, too.) So when I want a belly rub, play time or to be held and cuddled Mom knows just what to do!
Dad says I’m loving and quite well behaved. He is teaching me I some basic commands and says I’m anxious to please! I love to ride in the car and am a delightful combination of sweet and spunky. I’m just a happy, healthy, exuberant little guy who appreciates life. Dad likes to watch as I race around the yard being chased by my doggy foster brothers – then I’m happy to come in, find a lap to sit in and be held and cuddled. Mom says that makes me the perfect companion. She also says that when you take one look at me you will fall in love. (Sweet Mom! I know she appreciates me!)
I would love to have my own family and maybe a doggy brother or sister to play with and a person or two or three to snuggle with. In return, I will do my best to keep everyone smiling, feeling important and loved. (That will be easy for me because whatever family adopts me will be my whole world.)
So if you are looking for a best friend who will provide lots of playful moments and enjoys a good cuddle, then I am the dog for the job. And I am ready for my life’s next assignment.
Your Match for Life,
Magnificent and Marvelous Murphy
