My story

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

This tall refined gentleman comes to us with high society manners already in place thanks to our friends at Whatcom Humane Society. He`s dashing, understated and oh so loving.

Kid and cat status are unknown as he came in as a stray. We recommend older kids due to his size and refined tastes, slobber, boogers and chaos might get his bowtie in a knot.

Murphy has been a participant in playgroups. He calibrates his style to match that of the other dogs, all the way from rowdy to gentle. He will take breaks and come lean on your legs. We recommend bringing in your dog (s) from home to ensure a good match.

This smarty has graduated Canine Companion Training Class (at WHS) and knows sit and down with duration, take it, leave it and recall. He is a tall guy so he has a long stride. It may feel like pulling if you`re a pokey puppy but get your Richard Simmons on and move those legs! Don`t worry he`s super trainable if you have short legs.

Murphy`s perfect home would appreciate his loyal self and allow him to go at his own pace. He can be wary of strangers so just let him approach vs the other way around. He would enjoy regular walks, snuggle times on the couch and likely a household that isn`t too chaotic. Don`t miss out on this one, he`s special, a soul dog just waiting...
