ADOPTED ON 03-26-15 – Every once in a while our rescue gets at chance at working with a dog, that though injured, is still the definition of luck. Our new ward Murphy is just such a case, he was caught in a steel trap, had severe lacerations, was dumped at a shelter and was about to lose his leg. Then all of a sudden his foot started receiving blood, the x-rays revealed miraculously that he had no broken bones that he would not lose his foot and he landed in our hands. I said he had the luck of the Irish and thus his name Murphy.

FULL HEAVY COAT*** NEUTERED*** FULLY VETTED***GREAT WITH PEOPLE
GREAT WITH OTHER DOGS***LEASH, HOUSE AND BASIC COMMAND TRAINED

Mr. Murphy is a German shepherd and Siberian husky mix, weighs in at about 60-65 pounds, has a great full thick coat and is 12-18 months old. Our boy is now completely recovered, spoiled rotten and pretty sure that the world revolves around him. Murphy is as sharp as a tack, playful as a puppy, loving as an old soul, great with other dogs, great with all things people and stands as though he believes it is his job to oversee everything. This lad performed extremely well during our training and socialization programs, revealing superior training aptitude, superior social skills and an ability to manipulate.

PLEASE TAKE A MINUTE TO CHECK OUT THE SECTION BELOW

RDVG wants to provide you with as much information as we can because some of our mix breeds you might not be familiar with. The below section on “About the Breed” offers information on some of the Breed Characteristics, Children & Pets, Behavior and Personality, Temperament and more.

It is important to point out that in addition to the breed, there is an enormous variety in the way a dog acts and reacts to the world around him. In the end, your dog’s preferences and personality are as individual as you are–and if you can accept that– then you’re bound to enjoy each other.

Children & Pets

Animal Behavior Guidelines

Many children, especially very young ones, do not realize that pets are living animals and not toys. Failing to teach a child how to handle pets properly can result in suffering on the part of the pet and, in some cases, injury to the child. Taking introductions slowly will allow you to introduce family dogs and your children safely

Puppy Behavior, Growth & Development

Each stage of Puppy Growth and development is fascinating; by the time it reaches its first birthday a puppy is considered a mature, adult dog. Puppy Growth rate is fast compared to humans, just compare a puppy of 8 weeks to a baby of the same age.

One of the most common questions asked about a puppy’s growth and development rate refers to the eventual size of the puppy. How big will the puppy grow? How can you determine the adult size of a puppy? A young puppy is tiny and cute – everyone loves puppies! But will the puppy be suited to your environment? How much exercise will be required for a full grown dog? Will the puppy be a suitable pet for children? The breed of the puppy will determine the answers to these questions. A general response to the size and growth rate of a puppy and the adult size of a puppy is therefore not possible – it needs to be specific to the puppy’s breed.
