My story

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

PLEASE NOTE! Unless stated otherwise, our dogs and puppies are located in Arkansas, and transported to the north/northeast once adopted. We do occasionally have dogs/puppies placed in foster homes in the north/northeast. In the cases where the pet is somewhere other than Arkansas, it will be noted beside the name of the pet.



Hi! My name is Murdoch and I am a super good boy looking for my forever home. My Vet friend said I'm probably around 5-6 years old and maybe a little mixed up with my breed, she listed me as a Pitbull mix but my foster mom says I must be part Lab and Hound too because I 'talk' all of the time. I'm always on go...always happy! I love to play and meet new people of all sizes, but I can be too much excitement for smaller children. I need to meet doggie friends slowly because I always want to be friends with other friendly dogs but can be overwhelmingly excited. I'm very much super house trained and crate trained as long as my human takes me out regularly. I love treats, any treats....like Any treats especially left over pizza. I'm pretty big on walks and hiking, but totally love to cuddle up with my person and watch Hudson & Rex reruns on the TV, because who doesn't love a Canine hero? I do very well on leash, except I will pull initially out of excitement. Did I mention I love Car rides and Pup Cups, because those are two of my favorites.
My ideal home would be with an active human who loves to have a handsome dog hanging out of the car window cruising through town...oh and a female doggie sister would be good also so I could have someone to play with, but that's more of a wish than a requirement. I love going to doggy daycare to socialize with all my friends and make new ones! If my new family has kids they probably should be over 10 yrs old just so I don't get too excited and knock them over accidentally. I cannot...absolutely cannot go to a home with small animals, small dogs, or cats since I see anything small as a toy. I am fully vetted.
Please be my forever family.
Murdoch is located in Arkansas. He can be adopted locally, but transport is available to the New England area as well. Adopter must be able to pick up or arrange for someone to pick up for them in PA, NY, or CT on Saturdays.

More about this rescue

Adopt-A-Stray was founded in Jan. 2010, by Kelley Prichard. Since then, it has grown to include a few wonderful volunteers who work very hard to help ensure that our pets are place in loving, forever homes. We are based in Alexander, AR, but we list all of our available pets in the northeast. We work with several different transporters to get our babies to their new homes in the northeast once they are adopted. The transporter we use most often Pack Leaders (www.plrdogtransport.com). All pets are given age appropriate vaccinations before they leave. Every pet is seen by our vet prior to transport. If you see a pet listed that interests you, please be sure to read the description thoroughly and inquire to the email address listed. Thank you for considering a rescue dog!
