In the shelter’s words
Hello there. My name is Murphy, and I am a 16-year-old lil boy who weighs 22 pounds. I am so lucky this wonderful rescue came and saved me; I did not grow up in a very nice environment. I am a particular little guy; I like to do things on my own terms. I do not like to be forced to do things which makes me upset and nip. I also do not like to share toys or food. I want to be the leader, so I need to be the only dog in the house. I am still learning how to be a dog and still working on my house training and my manners. I do have some hearing loss and need kidney care food because of my age. I absolutely love to be outside and play with stuffies. My ideal home would a person who can teach me manners and who is willing to help me be a better guy. My adoption fee is $100, but if you are a senior yourself (65+), my adoption fee is waived. Must be an only dog. No children. Thank you for your continued support in our rescue efforts! NOTE: Hospice fosters have ongoing medical needs that will require care for the rest of their lives. While they remain available for adoption, we carefully screen potential homes to ensure their medical and special needs can be fully supported. BTRNT is committed to providing these dogs with a loving forever home—whether that is through adoption or as a permanent hospice foster within our rescue.

Plan a visit with the source organization
All potential adopters must fill out an application. The applicant must give a vet reference and a personal reference. Both of these references will be checked. All current pets of a potential adopter must be current on shots, spay/neuter and current on heartworm prevention. Once approved we then conduct a home visit to ensure it is a good placement for one of our dogs. All potential adopters must have a fenced yard or have arrangements for walking the dog regularily.
