About Murphy
Home needed: Adult-only home, active and committed to ongoing training
Murphy is a stunning Golden Retriever who is under 2 years old and is looking for an experienced, adult-only home. He is a resource guarder and can steal items, so he needs someone who understands these behaviours and knows how to manage and work through them safely. He’s incredibly clever and will need plenty of mental stimulation, training and enrichment to keep his busy brain occupied. Murphy would be best suited to a child-free home with an experienced owner who is committed to helping him thrive. With the right person and environment, this clever young dog has so much potential.
