He came to us through no fault of his own—his family was facing unstable housing and moving somewhere that allowed only one pet. They made the heartbreaking decision to surrender him so he could have the life they couldn’t give him right now. Despite the upheaval, Murphy is a happy, gentle, people‑loving pup. He sleeps curled up with his foster mom and furry sibling. He’s learning crate training, housetraining, starting leash work, and taking in the world with that bright, eager‑to‑please energy that makes this age so special.
