Murphy

Post by scubakim »

Hi all

We adopted Murphy 4 days ago and what a stunner he is!! He was a little shy at first but is really coming out of his shell now and his personality is shining through.

Typical lab, he loves carrying his toys around and chewing on his bone, thankfully not the furniture, as he is still only a pup at 6 months old.

He's settling well into his new surroundings, enjoying his walks on the village green and diving feet first into puddles and boy are those feet big! Afterwards he likes nothing more than clambering into his crate for a well earned rest. How come something so young can snore like an old man? :rofl:

Will try and post some pics later when we've worked out how to do it!

Glad to hear Murphy is settling in well.

I collected him and delivered him to Glenys earlier this week and if I hadn't already had two of my own he would never have made it to MKF!! :1967:

He was a little sweetie and travelled like an old pro!! :love5:

Hope you have many happy years together.
