    Murphy!

    I just adopted a beagle/lab/who knows? puppy from Tall Tails Beagle Rescue in Falmouth, ME on July 2, 2005. His mom and 3 siblings were taken in from a shelter in Kentucky, apparently his odds of getting adopted up here are much better? He's now 6 months old and is doing great!

    Housetraining is going well, no accidents in over a month!

    He just graduated from "Puppy Training," and is proficient at sitting, laying down, staying, rolling over, and shaking! He does have a jumping issue that we've been working on, he's getting better, though.

    He's getting the ol' snip-snip RIGHT NOW! I hope he won't be too sad...

    Not sure how to attach photos, but will do so when I figure it out!

    Welcome aboard, Lisa. I am sure that Murphy will forgive you very quickly for the big snip when he learns how much happier and healthier it will make him. Sounds like he is a quick learner. I am glad that he and his fur family made the trip north, so that you were able to find him. Can't wait to see pictures and hear more about this special boy.

    Yay! Murphy!!
    I can't wait to see pictures of him!! My lab/beagle (??) mix Jack ( you can see his pictures and the rest of my crew HERE) was also a rescue, I got him when he was 3 months old

    Okay to post pictures you need to go to a picture hosting website, I have found Photobucket to be the easiest place. You need to make an account and then you can upload pictures. After they are uploaded there is an edit button and you can change the size if you need to and when you are ready to post the picture in pet talk you copy the image code (its the very last line under your picture) paste it in here and voila!!
