Murfinator

I seriously think that Murphy is an angel dog from heaven. He's so well behaved, we are the luckiest people! Let me just give you a few examples:

  • He never barks.
  • He never licks.
  • He only jumps up on anyone, and if he does it's because they are holding cheese. The second I say "down" he gets down. I didn't even teach him that one. 
  • I don't even have to say "sit" anymore when I am putting his leash on. As soon as he sees me pick it up, he sits down by the door. 
  • Today we went hiking without his leash for the first time. He did so good! If there was a corner he would stop and wait until he could see me. Such a sweetheart! 
  • Murphy is officially house trained. Hurray! He only ever had 5 accidents. I'm so proud. 
  • And the biggest news of all: we put his kennel in our storage shed! We can leave the house and he doesn't chew on anything or bark at all! I don't know what he does, but when we come back I swear it's cleaner than when we left.

our dog, chloe, is one of the loudest animals you will ever meet. she jumps all over you when you're on the computer. she licks your ears and nose and tries to get IN your mouth. and then goes for your feet. and when we try to tell her to sit, she thinks we're saying 'speak' and starts barking.

trade? :)

My dog Syd sounds just like Steph's dog. We try so hard, too. You are lucky, sounds like you have the perfect pet!

You put him in the storage shed during the day? Hopefully there are windows or something. It would be too hot for a dog in a storage shed without something to cool him down...
