My story

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

Murphy came to me as an abused 3 year old pup. I was told that he was an aggressive dog however in the first few minutes all he needed was someone to have a heart for him. I would like to keep him however my home is to small and to busy for the time that he needs. He loves to go on walks and for the size he is, very well on the leash. The only issue that he has is he wants to protect his house and his humans. Very well with kids. Mine range from 11 to 16 and he will lay on all of them if allowed. I do have a second dog that they play a lot and no aggressive behavior. He is vocal when playing so there is a little playful growling. There are no cats in the home so I can not say if he is good with them. He does bolt after the rabbits in the yard unless asked to stop he will continue to chase. House broken and will ask to go out. Non food/water aggressive pretty laid back with the toys also, I am able to take it away if needed. Up to dates on shots. Any questions please feel free to ask.
