My story

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


Murphy is an incredibly special dog who has been part of our family since he was a puppy. He is gentle, loyal, and deeply loving, and making the decision to rehome him has been incredibly difficult. In a perfect world, we would never have to say goodbye.

Murphy does wonderfully with children and people of all ages. He has never bitten anyone and has never shown aggression. He is protective of his family in a calm, appropriate way and bonds strongly with the people he loves. He is fully house trained, has no accidents in the home, and is extremely trustworthy. He walks calmly beside you, even without a leash in appropriate settings, and does very well staying within yard boundaries without a fence.

Murphy is affectionate, friendly, and loves attention, cuddles, and head scratches. He is a relaxed “big potato” who enjoys naps and couch time just as much as companionship. Due to busy schedules and childcare responsibilities, we can no longer give him the time he deserves.
