🐾 Meet Murphy (aka Murph!) 🐾
By now, many of you know Murphy — but just in case you’re new here, let us introduce you to this very special boy. 💙 Murph is just over a year old and is still waiting to find his people.
Murphy will need two surgeries for his luxating patellas, and the good news is that the rescue will be covering the cost. What he needs most right now is a committed foster or forever family to support him through his journey.
Murphy is currently with a new temporary foster and is doing AMAZING! He’s learning so much from his foster siblings:
✨ He’s independently exploring his crate and learning that it’s a safe, cozy space
✨ He’s becoming more aware of his size and adjusting his play with smaller dogs
✨ He’s gaining confidence and navigating new situations with support
Murphy does have anxiety and will always need medication to help manage it, but he is doing well and continuing to grow every day. Because of his energy level, he would do best in a home with older children.
This boy is smart, food-motivated, and eager to learn. With continued training, patience, and love, Murphy will truly shine in a forever home that understands him and is willing to invest in him. 🐶❤️
If you’re interested in adopting Murphy or fostering him through his surgeries while we continue searching for his perfect match, please visit flintcitypits.org and complete either an adoption application or a foster application.
Murphy has so much love to give — all he’s missing is you. 🐾💙
