A little about them
Meet Murphy, a charming six-and-a-half-year-old Boxer/American Pitbull Terrier mix in Austin, Texas. This affectionate, curious boy weighs 65 pounds and is full of playful energy. He loves long walks, running in open spaces, chewing bones, chasing balls, car rides, cheese treats, and relaxing near his people.
Murphy can be cautious around unfamiliar sights and sounds, but patience and gentle encouragement help him become more confident. He is friendly with other dogs and has done well with a younger pup.
Ideal Home
Murphy would thrive with an experienced guardian in an active, structured home. A secure fenced yard or room to roam would suit his energy, and he would appreciate a present, engaged pet parent who can provide guidance, playtime, positive reinforcement, and companionship. He may occasionally dig.
Ongoing Health
Murphy is vaccinated and neutered. No medical conditions or health test results are stated.
Training & Support
Murphy is house-trained, crate-trained, comes when called, and knows sit, stay, and come. He enjoys a consistent routine with twice-daily meals, regular walks, and restful crate time.
Application Details
- Murphy will remain with his current family until a suitable new home is found.
- To apply, start by contacting Joyful Pets through Wags.
