Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Murphy is 18 months old, healthy, adorable, and the friendliest dog ever. He LOVES people, walks, and playtime. No problems with kids (has had exposure to infants, toddlers, and elementary), and pretty much pals around with anyone offering affection and attention.
He has the occasional accident, but is otherwise house trained. He jumps up on people to say hello — not as noticeable in a small dog (12.5 lbs, full size), but not ideal. He chews on some baby toys and we haven’t had success at redirecting that. He also begs too much. Our fault, not his.
The only reason for the rehoming is our busy schedules and his real need for more activity. We were not expecting as much energy as he has and can’t provide the outlet he deserves.
