My story

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

MURPHY – A Sweet Senior Cavalier Ready for His Forever Home



Murphy is a 9-year-old neutered male Cavalier King Charles Spaniel who is ready to leave his breeder days behind and enjoy a life of comfort, love, and companionship. This handsome tricolor gentleman embodies everything people love about senior Cavaliers—calm, affectionate, and endlessly sweet.

Murphy is gentle, easy-going, and happy. He thrives on human attention and prefers affection and companionship over toys. He is content with a quiet routine and enjoys being close to his people.

Murphy at a Glance:
• Sleeps through the night in a crate and would likely do well without one
• Doing well with potty training
• Calm, cuddly, and well-mannered in the home
• Good with respectful, calm children
• Does well with calm or older dogs
• Likely to do well with cats
• Not yet reliable on leash; a securely fenced yard is required
• Low physical demands and well suited for a relaxed lifestyle



Health and Veterinary Care:
Murphy is fully vetted and in good health for his age.
• Up to date on vaccinations
• Heartworm negative and on monthly preventative
• Microchipped
• Neutered
• Dental recently completed
• Grade 2–3 heart murmur with no heart enlargement and no medication required; monitoring only
• Mild arthritis managed with a daily glucosamine supplement



Murphy is looking for a caring, patient home where he can enjoy his retirement years surrounded by love, comfort, and companionship. He would do best with someone who appreciates the quiet joy and devotion of a senior dog.
