Meet Murphy! Murphy is a total love bug and is most happy getting his ears scratched. He is playful and loves fetch, tug-of-war, and is very respectful of his plush toys, only nibbling on them to hear the squeaker. Murphy is a foodie and enjoys anything served to him, and has taken a liking to sweet potato dried dog treats as a chewy little snack. One of Murphy's quirks is that he prefers to introduce himself to you by sniffing your nose, instead of your hand because he likes to meet face-to-face, like a proper gentleman.
Murphy is looking for a home with many cozy movie nights, a home where his playful spirit is celebrated with a game of chase in the backyard. He is eager to learn new things, meet new people, and share his silly personality with anyone who calls him handsome. To adopt Murphy, fill out an application online at HSNEI.org today!
