Murphy is a charming six-and-a-half-year-old Boxer/American Pitbull Terrier mix with a handsome tan coat and bright white accents. This 65-pound bundle of energy greets each day with enthusiasm, especially if it includes long walks, open space to run, and the promise of cheese treats! Murphy is an affectionate boy who truly enjoys being near his people and is happy to hang out wherever the action is. He is playful and high-energy, with a love for chewing bones, chasing balls, and hopping into the car for an adventure. His curious nature means he likes to explore, though he can be a little cautious when encountering unfamiliar sights or sounds. With patience and gentle encouragement, he grows more confident and relaxed. Murphy thrives in a consistent routine, enjoying twice-daily meals, regular walks, and restful nights in his crate. He is house-trained, comes when called, and knows commands like sit, stay, and come, showing his eagerness to learn and connect. He is friendly with other dogs and has done well with a younger pup, making him a wonderful companion for a home with canine friends.
