24-010 Murphy, a neutered Goldendoodle, was one year old in February 2024. He was surrendered because the wife, who currently worked at home and took care of Murphy, took a job outside of the home. They did not want to crate him for long periods of time and would no longer be able to spend sufficient and quality time with him. He was described as happy, lovable, and eager to please, good with children and other dogs. When Murphy arrived at his new home, it was love at first sight! An adopter from Sun City opened the front door and said: You have no idea how excited I am to be getting a dog again! 

The adopter works from home and can give Murphy the time and attention he needs. She says he is perfect and a cuddle bug. While the adopter was handling a 3-hour conference call, Murphy lay at her feet. Murphy now lives with a cat and enjoys exploring the backyard where he can watch the quail and bunnies roam. The adopter described life with Murphy: 

Murphy has fit right in since day one, as if he’d always lived here. He loves to play but has totally dismantled almost every toy in the basket. He immediately made friends with the neighbors’ retriever, as well as my daughter’s Doodle. In addition to actual dog food, he loves broccoli, cauliflower, and of course, bully sticks. He is a total joy, and I have no idea what I did without him.
