About Murray

Murray is a Labrador Retriever and Pit Bull Terrier mix born in June 2021, putting him comfortably under the sign of Gemini—no surprise since he’s smart, social, and always up for something new. He came back to the rescue after his adopted family faced illness and couldn’t keep him. Housebroken and crate trained, Murray’s already learned the basics: he’s completed an obedience class and walks well with a no-pull headcollar, though he’s a strong guy. Murray shines when he’s out for walks or hikes and appreciates attention from people. He’s friendly with other non-dominant dogs but needs a cat-free environment. An active family would suit him best, especially one that can offer regular exercise and companionship. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
