Biography

Murphy was a rescue when we got her at 3 months. She is a very intelligent dog. She is food driven because of her young life on the streets. She hasn't been around any small children and generally gravitates toward one person. She was toilet trained in one day and has never chewed anything even as a pup. We leave her alone in the house with food on the counter that she could get if she wanted, but never has. She loves to cuddle and sleep. She loves water, walks and chasing a ball. She loves to pick up and chew sticks on walks. We take her to Petsmart to get her nails cut. She doesn't like it but tolerates it and is well behaved. She doesn't need grooming just a bath once in a while. We have failing health with some upcoming challenges where we will not be able to care for Murphy long term. It saddens us. Murphy has an allergy to chicken so we feed her Salmon recipe food which works great.
