My story

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

MEET MURPHY - located in ORANGE CITY, FL - Volusia County, FL (4 hrs. north of Broward)

This handsome fella WAS DUMPED in a wooded area in NW Volusia County in Florida - He is about 6 months old and only weighs about 47 lbs. (His weight should be about 50 lbs.)

He had been seen wandering on the land for a couple weeks before he approached the human. He was taken to a vet and was is in great shape - He has been thoroughly vetted now, put on flea/tick & heartworm prevention and has JUST been neutered and chipped so he is READY for his new forever home!

He is in a foster home and is adjusting well to people, walks well on a leash and loves his TOYS! He is housebroken, hardly ever barks - and loves to play! At this time, we are NOT recommending a home with small children because when he is playing, he likes to 'play bite' your hand. Doesn't bite, doesn't break skin but for a small person, it could be scary

He is still a little 'reactive' when he meets other dogs but since he is so young - care and training should resolve this.

Adoption fee $350

If you are interested - please email for an application: info@gratefulpaws.org

NOTE: Adoption fees are applied towards the vet bill: exam, blood tests, vaccinations, fecal, worming, spay/neuter, and microchip. There is rarely anything left over, but if that happens, the monies get applied to the next or previous pet - who may have had to have an x-ray, be groomed or have a dental.

Additional adoption info

We perform a telephone or in-person interview and ask our perspective adopters to complete an application for review by our board (generally takes a day or less). We want to meet the family, so we will come to your house to see where our pet will live. We do a vet check and if applicable, a landlord or condo association check as well. And finally, we accept an adoption donation that is applied towards the vet and care bill for that pet. The range is from $75 to $350.

More about this rescue

We are a group of animal loving people who volunteer our time to save the life of an animal in need. We are not breed specific but our ability to help depends entirely upon whether we have a foster home in which to place the pet while we are looking for a new forever home.

We are entirely volunteer and none of us are compensated for our time or efforts. Monies donated go toward the animals in our care.
