My story

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

Murphy was an Animal Control seizure case last Fall when he was found dragging his hind end over gravel, and weighing less than half of the body weight he should have been. He was given to us to attempt to rehab, but that process has been a very slow and painful one. He is a big boy that requires strength to manage, and as hard as he tries, not every day has been better than his last. ? Murphy loves people and is the sweetest guy, and his recent MRI results show that his body ***should just about fully recover, but he needs someone devoted to his care and his rehab and that’s a tall order to fill. Murphy gets along with other dogs, but wants to overpower small males dogs (he has not been neutered yet as we were originally told he would need his hormones to recover). He is not safe around cats. He is about five years old. Murph is mobile (we will post video in the comments), but really needs time and a person with that same amount of time and patience to provide his PT exercises. Please help us by sharing this post and pray with us that someone out there exists who is meant to be his person. All physical therapy appointments and medical care (& food, etc) will be covered by PACK. If you think you have the huge heart and strength to help this wonderful boy heal please email packcares@gmail.com and include your phone number.
We love you big guy and we hope we find your perfect place very soon! ??????
