Meet Murphy - the gentle giant with a heart of gold.
Murphy is a big, lovable softie who is convinced he's a lap dog - despite his size! His favourite things in life are cuddles, pats, and simply being close to his people.
While Murphy can be a little nervous when meeting new people for the first time, he quickly warms up with a gentle approach and a little patience. Once he trusts you, his affectionate and loyal personality shines through. He adores his humans, including children, and loves nothing more than being part of the family.
Murphy loves a game of fetch, has a delightfully goofy personality, and is often blissfully unaware of just how big he is. Because of his size and enthusiasm, he would be best suited to a family with dog-savvy children aged 6 years and over. He also loves playing with his foster sister and would enjoy having a canine companion.
Murphy thrives on companionship and would be happiest in a home where someone is around more often than not. When left alone, he prefers to relax indoors on the couch with his favourite toys. A securely fenced yard with fencing at least 6 feet high is essential to keep this big boy safe.
He already knows basic commands such as sit and will happily drop the ball during a game of fetch. Murphy is currently working on his recall and is responding well to a whistle. Being highly food motivated, he loves learning and will continue to flourish with consistent, positive reinforcement.
If you're looking for a devoted, affectionate companion who will fill your home with love, laughter and endless cuddles, Murphy could be the perfect addition to your family. He's ready to find a forever home where he can truly be part of the family and share his big heart with people who will love him as much as he'll love them.
