About Murray

Murray is a dog who appreciates the balance of opposites. He’s got a bit of energy, but his preference leans toward calm canine companions. Murray carries some classic hound traits in his looks, yet he surprises most with how quiet he is. He’s particular about treats—only the best will do—and has a certain fondness for keeping his space tidy, so odds are good he's house trained. Add to this a big helping of undeniable cuteness, and Murray makes a strong case for himself as a great companion. Born at the end of March, Murray is an Aries—which might help explain his mix of confidence and laid-back charm. He does not get along with cats, but he is comfortable around other dogs.
