Murphy McDog
We had decided to get another dog after our
golden (Shannon) died 2 years ago. We had a big old cat (Spacely)
and needed to add a dog back into the mix. We looked around at all
the breeds and decided on a Wheaten. After a few misses we got
Murphy.
He was so funny when he first went outside. He had no idea what
grass was. His previous home had been in a Manhattan apartment and
he never went outside. Now he just loves going out. He is still
having a little trouble with potty training, he was trained on paper
only, but we're working on it.
It's so much fun just watching him look at trees and smell
everything and when he hears birds and ducks flying over he sits
down and just stares up at them in amazement. We have an autistic
daughter and at first Murphy would bite her because she would get so
excited over him but he has calmed down with her and she now brushes
him.
We have three kids and all three just love Murphy. He is a very
smart little guy, he knows where everything is and he just loves to
take car rides. Whenever I get the keys he bubbles over with Wheaten
exuberance. He is so happy, that little tail never seems to stop. Murphy has indeed brought something special to this household.
Can't wait for the holidays!
Many thanks to Gwen and everyone that works to help WIN.
