Murphy

The rescue’s notes on Murphy

AN ACTIVE, HAPPY PUPPY: Approx. 5-6 months old / Approx. 34 lbs. & growing Hello – I'm Murphy! Mostly Mutts rescued me from animal control, and I am so grateful for their love and care as I wait for my new family to find me. I'm ready to meet them and start the good life, so – don't wait – come let me rescue you! I was selected to participate in the Mostly Mutts Prison Pups immersive training experience off-site and learned a lot! Now I'm in a wonderful foster home while I wait for my new family to adopt me! • OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS: I met other dogs at Mostly Mutts and liked them, so if you have a nice dog at home that would like a puppy friend, let's meet! / Cats unknown. / I haven't met kids yet, so let's meet and best no toddlers that I may bump over. • PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL: I'm a sweet, very playful boy who's friendly, happy, active, fun, and smart! I was well behaved for my shelter bath and ear cleaning and seem to be a pretty good listener, too. I've even heard the volunteers call me "a wonderful pup," and that sure makes me happy! / Energy level: 6-8, so I'll want a family that will be active with me. • SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY: I'm a proud graduate of the Mostly Mutts Prison Pups immersive training experience so I've mastered the 'sit', 'stay', 'down', 'come', 'drop it', 'leave it' and 'place' commands. I also use proper door etiquette and have good leash manners as well as accept nice strangers without jumping. Let's continue my training as there are more classes I can take through the free lifetime training that Mostly Mutts offers for their rescue dogs. I'm looking for a family that will teach me everything I need to know to grow up and become a wonderful adult dog! / My crate manners are good at Mostly Mutts. I'm still a young pup learning the rules of home life, so crating me when I'm unsupervised will help me stay out of things while I learn what's mine to play with. / My potty habits were good in the off-site training program, so hopefully that will be the case in my new home as well. • LIKES/DISLIKES: A typical young pup, I LOVE to play and I love treats! Capturing toys and running around in the play yard are two of my favorite things. I would love a fenced yard in my new home where we can do just that together! An affectionate guy, I also love to cuddle - so let's make time for that between my play sessions, okay? / I can't think of things I don't like yet since I'm so young, though like all dogs I'm sure I wouldn't like it if I didn't get enough love, attention, exercise, and training. • MEDICAL: I've started my puppy shots, but you will have to finish these for me as I grow. I'm also micro-chipped and neutered. If you're ready for the fun and excitement of having a puppy as well as the training commitment, then let's meet! My adoption fee is $299.00, and I'm located in Kennesaw, Ga.
