Meet Murray! Murray is a delightful 1-year-old, 16-pound Terrier/Schnauzer mix looking for his forever home. Despite a tough start on the streets, he has adjusted beautifully to life inside. He’s the kind of pup who bonds deeply, following you around like a little shadow, and loves to snuggle close for warmth and comfort. After a long day, coming home to this affectionate guy is the perfect remedy! Murray is almost completely potty trained and settles quietly in his crate at night. Each morning, he greets his foster family with boundless enthusiasm. He gets along well with his dog foster sibling and can thrive as an only dog or in a home with other dogs. He enjoys slow introductions and needs a bit of time to feel secure, but once he does, he’s a playful snuggler. Though new sounds can make him a bit anxious, he’s already mastered walks in a busy Austin neighborhood. With plenty of love and positive reinforcement, he's sure to continue growing more confident. If you’re in search of a gentle companion to cuddle up with, Murray is your perfect match. Murray is currently in Warren, RI and is adoptable within Texas and Northeastern States.
