Murphy is a 5 year-old, 14 pound Miniature Pinscher mix. Murphy is known as the tiny construction worker! This compact boy is quiet, housetrained, friendly with both humans and dogs, and happy to be with his people any time of day!

Murphy loves going for a walk, and gets very excited as soon as he sees his leash. He does pull while being walked but it’s not difficult to keep him in tow. He stops and sniffs a lot and makes sure the neighborhood pups know he has visited, but overall Murphy is easy to walk and is always glad to get home.

Murphy and his 4-legged foster brother, Rocco, have gotten along since they first met. While they have not yet had a chance to become fast friends, they co-habitate beautifully, sniffing the yard, taking walks, and hanging out on the couch together. Murphy seems to get along with most friendly small dogs. Proper introductions and a little time to get used to one another is all he needs.

Murphy is happy to sleep in his own bed or crate, and loves to be with his people, but will take the opportunity for a snooze while his humans are out of the house. He is always happy to welcome his people home after any absence!

Prior to adoption, all dogs are spayed/neutered, tested for heartworm, vaccinated (including rabies, if age appropriate) and microchipped.
