About Murdock

Meet Murdock, an energetic boy nearly 4 years old, weighing around 93 lbs. He's on a mission to shed a few pounds, which means more exercise and fewer treats ahead! Murdock is a cheerful companion who loves being petted, getting treats, and playing with his toys. He knows how to 'sit,' 'lay down,' and 'paw,' showing great potential for further training thanks to his strong motivation for toys and treats. Murdock has previously lived with a female dog and generally gets along well with them, but he prefers to meet potential doggy friends first. His history with kids and cats is unknown, yet the staff believes he could adapt well with proper introductions. Murdock would thrive best with a stable adopter who's willing to maintain consistency in his training routine. He's already fixed, vaccinated, microchipped, and current on all parasite preventatives. Murdock's adoption fee is $185. Click apply to start the adoption process.
