About Murphy
Murphy is a young Rhodesian Ridgeback and Pharaoh Hound mix with a soft spot for people and snuggling. He lives with a lively group of other dogs, including his siblings, and gets along with all of them. He’s toy-obsessed—stuffies, bones, ropes, you name it—and he truly shines during a tug-of-war match (sometimes even letting his siblings win). Murphy’s favorite place is right next to someone who enjoys a good cuddle, and he has a big heart for both adults and kids. He’s outgoing with strangers and always excited to meet new people. Murphy is house trained, sticks to a schedule with his potty routine, and is comfortable in his crate when home alone or sleeping at night. He’s picking up leash basics and just needs a gentle nudge from someone patient as he learns. Cozy beds and outdoor play when the weather is warm are big deals for him; he’d prefer to skip the cold unless someone provides a warm coat. Murphy gets along well with dogs, cats, and children, making him a flexible fit for different families. He’s been neutered and is ready for his next chapter in Tonawanda, NY.
