Murdoch is a gorgeous Black puppy with white markings. He is American Bulldog/Australian Shepherd. Momma is approximately 80 pounds and Daddy is approximately 85. Murdoch is big for his age, and will be a large dog. Murdoch is the spitting image of his momma- Marla
Murdoch is intelligent, affectionate and beautiful. He is learning to sit for treats, has been potty training to paper as well as through a doggie door. He loves his human momma and always come when called. Murdoch knows his name, although has puppy patience and sometimes just plain has something better to do than listen to mom. Murdoch loves to be held and loves to cuddle. He is a favorite of the family.
Murdoch will be high energy and will require a home and yard and a family that is energetic.
Rescued from Melrose Park at 8 days old where someone was attempting to hurt momma. This litter was bottle fed and loved to pieces. They are being raised with a combination of Pomeranians and Boxers so they are fully socialized.

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.
