Why I need a new home

Busy schedule

My story

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


Rocco and Murfi are a pair. We won't be rehoming them with anyone unless they take them together. They won't survive without eachother.
Rocco is the small dog-he's the boss, and Murfi is the big black and white dog, he is scared of balloons, and his own reflection, and being without Rocco.
Murfi is not neutered, Rocco is.

They are two really wonderful sweet, loving dogs that deserve more than what we have been able to give them.
We have 3 kids, and the last two are about to graduate and we are typically too unavailable to do much of anything with them and I want Rocco and Murfi to experience a life where they can run around and enjoy their freedom out of a crate. They are used to being crated almost all day everyday at times and it makes me so sad to see them locked up like that. They almost seem too comfortable in their crate.
