Murphy is now in foster and doing very well – here is an update from his fosterers:
Thought it was about time for another Murphy update. We have really enjoyed our time training him. He is definitely more mischievous than Jay Jay was, but I think it gives him more character. He is quite responsive to learning new things tho. We have been socialising Murphy at the local park and he has the best manner when meeting other dogs. He does get a bit excited if on the leash if he has not been exercised and see's a dog, however, calms very quickly once he has met them. It also proves a bit of a recall issue too, however, we are continually working on this and he is getting better daily. Feeding times are now perfect, he waits until we say so patiently which is a major improvement to when we first got him. His energy levels are now a lot more calmer with his daily exercise's contributing to this. His mouthing challenges have greatly improved too he is learning to be more gentle and still wants to groom you all over with his tongue

. Anyway just wanted to say he is such a sweet and loving dog, very bright and just needs the time to learn the rules, which i would give him a A+ for effort and improvement. I have attached some photos of him too. Enjoy.
