What is Rehome?
If you see pets listed by a private owner, it means that they’re adoptable through Adopt a Pet’s Rehome program – the safe and reliable way to find a loving new home for your pet.
Murphy is an affectionate meatball who likes to spend time with his toys & then sleep on your lap. He loves long walks—maybe because he always gets breakfast right after. He’s usually in no rush to get anywhere unless it’s time for a walk or car ride. He loves to wrestle, so if you have another dog, he’d be best with one who can match his play-energy. He’s house-trained & will always let you know when he needs you to open the door. At night, he knows it’s time to go out one last time & then wait for his bedtime treat.
Murphy is about 5 years old & weighs 65lbs. He’s up-to-date on his shots, & has never had any medical issues. My ex & I adopted him when he was a year old, so I have all his records.
As much as I adore him, caring for two dogs on my own is just not sustainable with my lifestyle; I travel, & work a lot, & the year ahead will be especially demanding. I sincerely hate to give him up, but I know he’ll be better off in a new loving home.
