Murphy, the Dog of the Day
Name: Murphy
Age: Seven months old
Gender: Male Breed: Maltese
Home: Indianapolis, Indiana, USA
 
   Murphy is the cutest, sweetest baby ever. Murphy is a very loving puppy. He likes to give kisses (licks) and will give you kisses all day and night if you let him. He loves taking naps with us - most importantly, on us. He will even sleep on your side if you are sleeping in that position. He enjoys watching "doggy" movies like "Lady and the Tramp" and will talk back to the television when the dogs bark in the movie. He loves helping his mommy work - whether by sitting on her lap with a toy when she is working on the computer or licking the pages of her books while she reads. While not a big fan of snow because his legs are so short, he could play in the rain forever. He learned how to sit within a couple of minutes and is now working on stay - he's having trouble because he much prefers to just run into your lap.

    His favorite toys are his big sister cats but they do not find him as cute as we do. He is just now beginning to win the heart of our youngest cat who likes to wrestle with him sometimes. His other favorite game is keeping bouncy balls off of the tile. He kicks them on to the tile and then chases them and brings them back on to the carpet. All in all, he is the most entertaining and loving friend we have ever had.
