Here's what the humans have to say about me:
So I'm just come right out and say it….I have this little condition, I am kinda embarrassed about it. I have thinning hair on my derriere. I know, I know, “Murphy you shouldn’t be embarrassed about that.” But in my youth I had such a think flowing coat, I was the envy of everyone in town. I am coming to accept it, coming to terms, but it is still kinda hard… I'm just not as youthful and trusting as some of these pups and I just can't help but worry that I may get looked over…passed by for a younger lad with a full head of hair. Forgive me, I just can't help that I am self conscious. That I'm not overly trusting of new people, that it takes me a little time to feel comfortable. I have spent plenty of time around children and tend to trust them more easily than adults, but I am still not fond of heavy handing so I am hoping to find a family where all member understand how to treat me with gentle love and respect. Other dogs and cats are fine by me, and I'm even housebroken already. Patience and understanding, that really all I need. Some TLC, regular flea treatment and good quality food and I bet my derriere will be full of hair in now time, and my self esteem will be on the rise. 8 years old-18lbs. My adoption fee is $100 and includes; neuter, microchip, 1 month pet health insurance, reduced cost training class, free vet exam, leash/collar, toy & treat packet, food sample.
