Are you looking for a spunky sidekick who adores you? Murdoch is a powerful bundle of cuddly energy. He’s very curious about life and wants to be around people. He loves following around his foster parents, playing with his foster-sister bulldogs, and independently playing with his toys. He’s food-motivated and loves treats; he’ll sit and give paw for his dinner and for rewards. He’s still learning manners in the house (counter-surfing, etc.) but does well with walks on a leash. He is potty trained and will let you know when he needs to go for a walk. He loves meeting new people and has made great progress being a good boy around strangers. After long walks, he flops on the ground and relaxes in frog pose. He loves giving slobbery kisses and has a heart of gold. At the end of the night, he is happy to go into his crate. Murdoch is in Philadelphia, PA.
