My story

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

Hey Future Family, my name is Murphy! I am a 7-year-old lab mix who is looking for my forever family. I am sad to be leaving my current family, I've been with them my whole life, but unfortunately, I don't do so well with toddlers...they are a little too busy for me. On top of that, I've been through a rough year; I survived a house-fire with my family and since that trauma, I've had more stress and anxiousness from so much change. I'm also fearful of storms! I'm ready for a home that provides consistency, love, snuggles, a fenced yard to run and enjoy the sunshine. I'm on Purina Pro Plan Veterinary diet, which settles my stomach. I'm a very sensitive boy! Ideally, I can be the only pet in the house so I don't have to compete for attention. I was an only child for 5 years.

My current family says I can even bring all my own stuff with me! I am ready- I've got my dog beds, bowls, toys and more. I am a good boy! I am protective and will let you know when someone comes to visit and take a minute to warm up. I will sleep at the foot of the bed to make sure you are safe and extra cozy. I can't wait to take you on long walks, play outside, and show you all my tricks. Please consider me to be your newest baby. I can't wait to meet you! I may take some time to adjust, please be patient with me as I've had a lot of changes. I promise I will be worth it though; I just need some extra love and attention. -Love, Murphy
