Why Murphy Needs a New Home
A number of reasons: My partners work situation has changed and she is now working online from home. She can't have the dog barking or distracting her during the meetings - and there are A LOT of meetings. We have moved to a smaller apartment and we just don't have a space for the dog to run around the way he needs to. My circumstances have changed substantially since he came to me. I have tried to make it work but I haven't been able to. This is a very difficult decision.

This dog is being rehomed by their owner. Contact them through LocalPetFinder to learn more and arrange a meet-and-greet.
Spayed/Neutered: Yes
About Murphy
Handsome, friendly, loving, intelligent, playful and energetic. Loves to be brushed and have his tummy rubbed. Excellent hiking companion and loves a dip in a creek or river. Can be reactive with some dogs, particularly un- neutered males. He's not terrible with children, he just hasn't been around many. They kind of freak him out.
