Murphy


A rather sleepy Murphy wondering what the heck I was doing on the floor next to him. He's getting on in years and is 12 years old. He's slower, slightly deaf (although I have my doubts and think he's got selective hearing now) and takes longer naps. He still takes himself off for a walk every morning and barks like crazy for someone to open the gate after just 15 minutes. He plays in the rain (which is especially annoying when he's just had a bath!). Murphy hasn't lost his appetite, thank goodness. And he hasn't lost some of his puppy ways either. He still hops like a rabbit around me when I get home or when he wants his walk. He's all bark and no bite, and is very gentle around children. Oh, and he loves hugs...great big bear ones.
