Murphy

Dear Future Family,

My name is Murphy; I am a young, handsome APBT. I have been dealt a pretty bad hand in life, yet I have the most outgoing happy personality. I have never met a person or dog I didn't like! When I walk into a room the entire place lights up with my smile and happy go lucky personality! I love life, walks, rubs, kisses and attention, but right now as I am dictating this to my foster mom, I am passed out in her bed just happy to be alive!

You see, in the beginning of July, I was hit by a car and left on the street to take care of myself. My former “family” never came to claim me, so the nice people called rescue and they said “Sure, we’ll take him”. I had surgery to fix my broken leg that went well, but I got a bad infection and they need to take my left hind leg. But I can tell you, I don’t even know it is gone!! I can walk, run and even do stairs without missing a beat!!

If I do say so myself, I am a very good boy. I am affectionate, sweet natured and quite handsome. Some might say I am a gentle giant. I love to play and be silly but am usually very calm and collected. I am super smart. I know, it’s hard to find a bully who isn't smart but get this: I learned "sit," and "wait," the first day I moved into my new foster home. That's right folks I am very easy to train! My foster mom is working on stay and shake right now. She is a real stickler for training I want to jump up and kiss her, but she won’t let me. We’re also working on mouthing, whatever that means!! My mom also says I am terrific on a leash and that I don't pull at all. I am also completely housebroken and crate trained.

I share my foster home with another pittie female, two cats and two young children and LOVE them all!! As I mentioned, I haven’t met a person or dog I haven’t liked.

I don't know what else to tell you other than the fact that I am athletic, so I do need someone who will exercise me, I am amazingly well behaved but I’ll need an owner who will continue to work with me, and I am sweet, so I need an owner who will let me cuddle and snuggle with them, real close!

Love and licks, Murphy
