Please Adopt Murphy!

 

Breed: English Pointer/Border Collie Mix

Location: Cave Creek

Sex: Male

Age: 4 – 5 years

Weight: 50 pounds

 

Description: Murphy has been in rescue for over two years and needs a furever home desperately!  His foster mom is moving and needs to find him a permanent home.  Murphy deserves to be loved and not moved anymore. Please help him!

 

He weighs about 50 pounds has been neutered, chipped and is current with all his vaccinations.

 

Murphy’s ideal home is one with female(s) since he is afraid of most men.  He has bonded with a few males but they have been soft spoken and gentle/positive in nature. Murphy has some special needs. He has been

abused and his best fit for a stress free home would be with a dog savvy individual that understands his needs. Murphy loves to go on walks and is

extremely smart.  He would love to share his home with other dogs (non-aggressive ones, he loves to play). He has been trained. He is housebroken and loves

the car. Murphy really loves to please. As stated above, he gets along great with other dogs. Not good with cats. If you

understand his stranger danger challenges, he is amazing. It just takes a little time of love, patience and

those liver treats to win him over!

Hi, I’m Spartacus!

Like the Spartans, I beat impossible odds at the shelter and was rescued. I was brought in wearing a collar and knowing commands but my owner never came looking for me. Being a pitbull can be a hard stigma to overcome especially in the shelter environment. Families would walk by looking for a new forever friend and sometimes a boy or girl would stop by and greet me but everytime the parent’s would shake their head and they would leave with a smaller, fluffier, or more puppy-like dog. I was so happy for my friends but as much as I tried I couldn’t get smaller or fluffier but I wish they knew at 2 years old, I’m still very puppy-like! If someone would just take me out to play for just a couple minutes they would see I was a talented athlete, playmate and comedian all rolled into one handsome package. Although the shelter staff and volunteers loved me and gave me lots of extensions, I grew very depressed waiting for someone to come until my foster Mom came to give me a second chance at a forever home.

In my foster home, I’ve been a very good boy. I’ve gotten along with dogs in my foster home but I can be a bit rowdy at moments and would do best with other playful medium to large dogs. I learn quickly and know basic commands, I’ve begun crate training and I’m learning to love my crate. Sometimes I sleep in there when the door is open just because I think it is cozy. I am VERY food motivated. I’m housetrained and know how to use a dog door.

I’m fully vaccinated, microchipped, and neutered. I’m available to meet and greet in both Phoenix and Tucson by appointment.
