My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Murphy is a handsome, sweet and shy, 11-year-old, 41-pound, male cream Shar Pei looking for a loving guardian.

Murphy is absolutely wonderful once you get to know him. However, he is nervous with new people at first and might growl when he’s uncomfortable. He will be fantastic with an experienced Shar Pei-lover, or a dog-lover willing to give him the time and space to adjust.

He is good with select dogs at the kennel – mostly females, but a few males as well.

Sadly, his human is in hospice and he was given to Pei Land Shar Pei Rescue to find a home.
Because he’s nervous, he’s best with adults and teens, and not small children.

He is a healthy senior, de-wormed, up-to-date on vaccines, neutered, heartworm-tested, on monthly heartworm preventative and micro-chipped. His adoption fee of $200 benefits the rescued pets of Pei Land Shar Pei Rescue.

To meet and possibly adopt Murphy, please contact Jen at peachesash@aol.com or 630-553-7829.

Murphy is being fostered in Plano, Illinois.
