About Murphy
Murphy is a one year old German Shepherd who is looking for a new home. He is only a light dog being only 17 kilos
Murphy gives lots of love and has been house trained. He can walk on a lead but will need more training as he still likes to jump up.
Being a large dog he is not suited to a home with young children and hasn't been tested with cats or pocket pets. He is currently living with a six year old female German Shepherd and is too boisterous for her, so he may be a good companion for a younger dog or as an only dog.
Intelligence, loyalty, love and companionship is what Murphy will give in abundance when he connects and builds that trust with his new owner.
If you understand the nature of a German Shepherd, have recently owned this breed, and are looking for a companion dog then please consider Murphy.
If you think you can give me a new home please contact us by selecting "Enquire about Murphy".
If you live in Queensland or Victoria, you can be considered, however you will need to be able to drive with your family to meet Murphy. If for any reason he doesn't fit your family you will be responsible for bringing him back to Sydney or helping us to rehome from your home.
Medical notes
Murphy is microchipped and will be vaccinated and desexed either before going to his new home or as soon after as possible.
Adoption details
We have an Adoptions Manager who screens all prospective candidates as to their suitability to adopt a German Shepherd Dog.
We try to contact every one by phone but if that isn't successful we will email our application form to you, which needs to be completed and returned, or you can call us back and we can chat and complete for you. We will also ask you to provide photos of your yard and fencing to enable us to see where the dog will be kept and that they have areas of shade and shelter.
All our dogs are ready to go to their new home, so when you enquire about a dog you must be in a position to take them into your home. We are unable to hold a dog while you fix your fences or go on holiday, etc.
The successful candidate who adopts one of our dogs is provided with an information kit, ongoing support, training and advice on all aspects of feeding, training and general assistance to ensure both the new owner and our rescued dog settle into their home.
