Cutie Patootie Murphy was dumped one evening in Melrose Park.    How in the world would someone love this guy, care for him and then toss him in the trash?

Murphy was obviously loved and cared for.  His nails were clipped, his ears spotless, he is healthy as can be.  He has the sweetest puppy breath........And he is potty trained!   Someone loved him - but who?

This little boy needs a very active family or trained for service.  He is eager to learn,  wants to please and high energy.

Murphy is a talker and probably wouldn't be acceptable in an apartment.

Murphy is looking for a permanent loving home.  Someone who will love him forever.   This boy is so smart and playful and loveable.

The adoption fee includes vaccinations, Bordetella, de-worming, rabies, spay/neuter and microchip. There is a an additional $12.99 fee for Home Again for a lifetime registration of the microchip.

Puppies cannot be adopted outside of the Houston area until they are spay/neutered after they are 4 months old.

It is against the law in the State of Texas for a rescue not to be sterilized so we have to make sure it gets completed and that we have record of it.
