More about Murphy
**Update 4/12 Murphy has now been adopted and is on his trial period**
Meet Murphy: The Big Goofy 1-Year-Old Puppy! 🐾
While we are still getting to know Murphy, here is what we know so far….
He is a sweet, playful 1-year-old who loves nothing more than snuggling up for cuddles. So far he has socialised well with a male and female dog here and we will continue to socialise him with more dogs, making him a perfect addition to any multi-pet household, although he hasn’t been tested we believe due to his friendly nature he could live in a home with dog savy children.
Murphy recently had some x-rays as we noticed his back legs were a bit all over the place, the results from x rays show he has hyper flexion and hyper extension – meaning he’s hyper mobile and super flexible! his ligaments and tendons are a bit looser than normal however this will not cause him any pain or discomfort so no medication is needed, in terms of exercise it means for him is no thrashing up hills or high impact sports (like agility) and with his loose ligaments and tendons he is at higher risk of injury. He may develop arthritis a bit earlier than normal. Otherwise he’s super healthy, just something he was born with.
