My name is Murphy!

MURPHY NEEDS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!!

Name:  Murphy           Best Guess for Breed:  Retriever and shepherd mix

Best Guess for Age:   5 months as of January 2025          SEX:  Female

Estimated Weight (puppies' weights change quickly!):   25 lbs as of 1/17/25

Gets Along With:        Most puppies are in the prime of their socialization window and will do well with other dogs, cats and kids so long as they receive patience and proper training.

Currently Living at:   Lucky Dog's South Carolina rescue campus; needs a foster or forever home in the DC area to get her freedom ride up here!
 

Special Adoption Considerations:       Puppies under 6 months of age need to have multiple potty breaks/exercise throughout the day. Potential adopters with a standard 8-hour workday must be willing to make arrangements to meet the needs of their puppy. 

Murphy is Looking For:   A life as a well-loved pup, with her own humans, in her own home! She didn't have the most awesome start to life - she arrived into our care with a broken left rear leg and a less than glossy coat due to demodex, a non-contagious form of mange caused by a weakened immune system. She got a cast on that leg and is being treated for the demodex and soon she will be a happy girl running about with a glossy coat. 

Murphy deserves all the best. She's just a puppy and wants puppy things too - play time and snuggles and more play time! Loving humans, long sniffy walks and romps in parks and all the adventures her family can dream up. In exchange she promises so many adoring gazes, happy tail thumps, and loyal companionship for all her days. What do you say? Is she the one you see by your side?

What My Foster Says About Me: We will update this once she has arrived in the DC area and spent some time with her foster.

Your new puppy will need to work on their house training and will also need to go to obedience school so they can grow into a well-socialized dog! 

TO ADOPT:       The adoption fee for this puppy is $485, which includes the cost of routine vetting and transport from the shelter.    If you are interested in adopting, please complete the Adoption Questionnaire online bit.ly/adoptaluckydog
