Doberman Pinscher and Shepherd Dogs Available for Adoption

Meet Murphy - your future shadow, trail buddy, and ride-or-die.
Murphy is the kind of dog guardian-breed people search for. Loyal. Attuned. Smart. Devoted to his person. He has that classic Doberman/Shepherd energy - athletic enough for adventure days, grounded enough to curl up and just be with you at night.

He'd thrive with:
An active home that enjoys hiking, exploring, or training together
Dog friends (in the home or socially - he enjoys other dogs!)
A human who appreciates a thinking dog with a solid foundation Murphy already comes with a great training base and has an impressive recall. He wants to work with you, not against you. He's affectionate in the sweetest way - gentle, connected, and happy to share the couch or your bed without being pushy about it.

Cats are still unknown.

If you're looking for that loyal guardian-type companion who will bond deeply and be your steady sidekick through it all, Murphy might just be your guy.
Available through Happy Tails Happy Homes in Bellingham.
