Here's what the humans have to say about me:
MURPHY***CONTACT SHELLY lovedogs.rescue@gmail.com***MURPHY--WOW!!! OUR "DROP DEAD GORGEOUS" FELLOW!! WE RECEIVED A CALL FROM THE DIRECTOR OF A SHELTER IN THE SOUTH LETTING US KNOW THAT ONE OF THE MOST GORGEOUS DOGS SHE HAD EVER SEEN WAS IN HER SHELTER. "THIS PUP HAS TO BE ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL DOGS EVER. HE IS BEYOND GORGEOUS AND JUST A HAPPY, FUN FELLOW" CAN YOU HELP HIM? WAS HER PLEA TO US. THE MINUTE WE SAW THE PICTURE SHE SENT US OF THE "GOLDEN" DOG SHE NAMED MURPHY WE COULDN'T GET TO HIM FAST ENOUGH. MURPHY LEFT THE KILL SHELTER THAT DAY, TAIL WAGGING, EYES SPARKLING, ALL READY TO BEGIN HIS NEW LIFE. MURPHY IS A BREATHTAKINGLY BEAUTIFUL, 1 YEAR OLD, 65 LB. GOLDEN RETRIEVER/YELLOW LABRADOR RETRIEVER, IT DOESN'T GET ANY BETTER THEN THIS, TWO GREAT BREEDS, ONE "GREAT" PUP!!!. WHEN YOU FIRST SEE MURPHY HE WILL STOP YOU IN YOUR TRACKS HE IS SO GORGEOUS. HE IS WITHOUT A DOUBT ONE OF THE MOST OUTSTANDING LOOKING DOGS WE HAVE SEEN. HE POSSESSES A REGAL, DISTINGUISHED AND NOBLE APPEARANCE BUT UNDER THAT REGAL DIGNIFIED POSE IS ONE HAPPY, LOVING, "I LOVE LIFE PUP". HE IS A PERFECTLY PROPORTIONED FELLOW WITH A GORGEOUS HEAD AND GRAND MUSCULAR CONFIRMATION. HE HAS A SMOOTH, FLOWING GAIT, REFINED AND ELEGANT, MOVING WITH A GREAT DEAL OF GRACE AND AGILITY. HE TRULY IS BEAUTIFUL TO WATCH. HIS COAT IS FLAWLESS, A WARM SUN-KISSED COLOR WHICH LOOKS LIKE MURPHY WAS DIPPED IN HONEY. HIS GORGEOUS "BLOCK" LAB HEAD IS HIGHLIGHTED WITH THE MOST BEAUTIFUL EYES. THEY ARE LARGE, A WARM, RICH, GOLDEN COLOR, THEY WILL ABSOLUTELY MAKE YOU MELT. ONCE YOU MEET MURPHY YOU WILL REALIZE THAT BEING BEAUTIFUL IS ONLY THE START TO THIS GREAT PUP'S PACKAGE. HE IS SO MUCH MORE THEN JUST A PRETTY FACE BUT WE HAVE TO ADMIT THIS PUP IS "PRETTY". MURPHY IS THE QUINTESSENTIAL COMPANION. HE HAS A GLOWING TEMPERAMENT AND DISPOSITION, TRAITS WHICH HAVE ENDEARED THE GOLDEN RETRIEVER AND LABRADOR BREEDS TO FAMILIES FOR GENERATIONS. HE IS A PUP WHO IS LOYAL AND DEDICATED TO THOSE HE LOVES. HIS TRUE HAPPINESS COMES FROM BELONGING. HE IS A PUP WHO'S FIRST DAY WITH YOU YOU WOULD THINK HE HAD ALWAYS BEEN A PART OF YOUR LIFE. YOU COULD TAKE MURPHY ANYWHERE AND HE WOULD MAKE YOU PROUD, JUST GET USE TO BEING STARED AT WHEN FOLKS SEE HIM, HE IS A SHOW STOPPER!!! WHATEVER YOUR DAY CALLS FOR IS FINE WITH MURPHY JUST AS LONG AS HE GETS TO GO. HE IS ONE "LOVING LIFE" PUP. HE WOULD FIT INTO ANY FAMILIES LIFE STYLE AS HE IS THE ULTIMATE COMPANION. IF YOUR DAY STARTED WITH AN EARLY MORNING WALK OR JOG, MURPHY WILL BEAT YOU TO THE DOOR AND IF MURPHY COULD FIGURE OUT HOW TO PUT HIS LEAD ON WE BET HE WOULD. HE WOULD ADORE A TRIP TO THE PARK THIS "MR. SOCIAL" GUY LOVES OTHER DOGS JUST A CHANCE TO MEET A NEW BUDDY TO ROMP AND PLAY WITH. IF YOUR WEEKEND CALLED FOR A GET AWAY TO YOUR CABIN IN THE MOUNTAINS, JUST OPEN YOUR CAR DOOR AND IN MURPHY WILL HOP, GRAB A FEW TREATS, SOME TENNIS BALLS, NOW TAKE OFF. MURPHY WILL SPEND THE DAY EXPLORING NEW TRAILS, CHASING ANY STICK YOU THREW HIM, DIVING IN THE BIGGEST SNOW BANK HE COULD FIND, JUST ENJOYING THE DAY, ENJOYING LIFE. MURPHY IS ALSO AN EXTREMELY BRIGHT GUY, ALERT AND A PUP THAT IS EAGER TO LEARN, EASY TO TEACH, DELIGHTS IN PLEASING. HE FINDS ANYTHING NEW YOU INTRODUCE HIM TO INTERESTING AND A CHALLENGE. HE IS VERY IN-TUNE TO HIS OWNER ALWAYS WATCHING AND LISTENING FOR ANY COMMAND YOU MIGHT GIVE HIM. THE SKY'S THE LIMIT FOR THIS GREAT FELLOW. AT DAY'S END WHEN MURPHY COMES INTO HIS HOME, HE CONTINUES TO SHINE. DON'T BE SURPRISED WHEN YOU BUILD A FIRE, SETTLE IN YOUR EASY CHAIR TO READ A GOOD BOOK OR WATCH A MOVIE THERE WILL BE A BEAUTIFUL "GOLDEN BOY" CURLED UP AT YOUR FEET. HE IS HAPPY AND CONTENT BEING WITH THE PEOPLE HE LOVES MOST IN THE WORLD, HIS FAMILY. MURPHY TRULY HAS "GREAT" COVERED FROM A TO Z. HE HAS A GLOWING TEMPERAMENT--HAPPY--LOVING--SMART AND OH YES "DROP DEAD GORGEOUS". WE FEEL THAT AFTER SPENDING TIME WITH MURPHY HE WOULD BE A GREAT FIT FOR A SINGLE GUY OR GIRL OR A FAMILY WITH CHILDREN, AN OWNER WHO LIKES TO GO AS MUCH AS MURPHY DOES. IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A SLEEP ALL DAY, COUCH POTATO KIND OF DOG BETTER KEEP LOOKING AS MURPHY ISN'T THE PUP FOR YOU. EVERYDAY IS A NEW ADVENTURE TO MURPHY AND HE IS READY TO TAKE IT ALL IN!!!! IF MURPHY SOUNDS LIKE THE COMPANION YOU ARE HOPING TO MAKE A PART OF YOUR LIFE THEN LOOK NO FURTHER YOU'VE FOUND YOUR NEW BEST FRIEND. IF YOU OPENED A DOG BOOK TO READ THE TRAITS THAT MAKE A GREAT LAB OR A GREAT GOLDEN RETRIEVER YOUR FIRST COMMENT WOULD BE "IT'S MURPHY" THIS IS ONE OUTSTANDING PUP!!!!
