Our Dog Murph...she is almost 10 years old and still acts like a puppy at times.  She is so loved and adored by all of us.  Murph has become an integral part of our family.  She was around before our girls and I guess you could say she was our first baby.  Yes, she is spoiled but how can you not.  Look at that face!  

Murph is a gentle, patient dog.  She has endured ear pulling, tail pulling, and some much rough play from the three girls.  Throughout it all she doesn't once flinch or snap at them.  I believe she knows they are her family and she protects them with all her might.  


When one of us is feeling sad, do you know who is there putting her snout on the person's lap....yep Murph.  She is the most loyal companion. She can sense when one of us needs some loving and she is right there to provide it.  How can you go wrong with a dog like her?


As you can tell, we absolutely love our Murph dog.  I hope that each of you has a pet that you are thankful for.  There are days I wish Murph and I could be alone....she doesn't sass, she doesn't argue.  She just looks at you with those puppy dog eyes that say, "I love you no matter what." Well, okay every once in a while there is a barking fit...but we love you Murph!  



I talk to him when I'm lonesome like; and I'm sure he understands.  When he looks at me so attentively, and gently licks my hands; then he rubs his nose on my tailored clothes, but I never say naught thereat.  For the good Lord knows I can buy more clothes, but never a friend like that.  ~W.
