Arrival Story:
I found Murphy at the Geauga Humane Society. I always visit there about once a month. I had been without a dog for several years and always looked for dogs. So once I spotted him, I knew he was the one.

Bio:
Murphy was my travelling companion. I had worked in construction for over 20 years and Murphy went with me. So he had travelled to San Antonio and Dallas, TX, Bethesda, MD, Long Island, NY, Farmington,CT (he made friends with Max-and extremely large St. Bernard)Charlotte, NC, Columbus, OH just to name a few. He almost flew home here to Cleveland one Thanksgiving from Dallas. But, Murphy knew that if the red bag with wheels was packed he was going somewhere and he wouldn't sleep until it was time to go. Sometimes he would sleep in the van the night before we left. He endured Sheena our one cat, was a sidekick to Chandler our other cat. Those two were inseperable. Chandle thought he was a dog and would attach himself to Murph'y hind leg and off they would walk. Chandler would even pick dog food out of Murphy's beard. Murphy was at least 13 when he passed away from cancer. A tumor just grew so big and so fast...he waited until I went to work to pass away. Luckily I knew it was time- because I told him if he made it to the week-end I was going to put him to sleep - we talked, hugged, told him I loved him and went off to work. An hour later my husband called to say Murph had passed. Of all my dogs I have lost (Murph was my third) this was the hardest one. I still go out to where he is buried and talk to him. Actually 11/24 will be one year.

PRAYERS TO GOD FROM A DOG.....


Dear God,

Why do humans smell the flowers, but seldom, if ever, smell one another?


Dear God,

When we get to heaven, can we sit on your couch? Or is it the same old story?


Dear God,

Why are there cars named after the jaguar, the cougar, the mustang, the colt, the stingray, and the rabbit, but not ONE named for a dog? How often do you see a cougar riding around? We dogs love a nice ride!

Would it be so hard to rename the 'Chrysler Eagle' the 'Chrysler Beagle'?


Dear God,

If a dog barks his head off in the forest and no human hears him, is he still a bad dog?


Dear God,

We dogs can understand human verbal instructions, hand signals, whistles, horns, clickers, beepers, scent ID's, electromagnetic energy fields, and Frisbee flight paths. What do humans understand?


Dear God,

More meatballs, less spaghetti, please.


Dear God,

When we get to the Pearly Gates, do we have to shake hands to get in?


Dear God,

May I have my testicles back?


Dear God,

Are there mailmen in Heaven? If there are, will I have to apologize?


Dear God,

Let me give you a list of just some of the things I'd like you to help me remember so I can be a good dog:

a.. I will not eat the cats' food before they eat it.

b.. I will not roll on dead seagulls, fish, crabs, etc, just because I like the way they smell.

c.. The sofa is not a face towel; neither are Mom and Dad's laps.

d.. The garbage collector is not stealing our stuff.

e.. My head does not belong in the refrigerator.

f.. I will not bite the officer's hand when he reaches in for Mom's driver's license and registration.

g.. I will not play tug-of-war with Dad's underwear when he's on the toilet.

h.. Sticking my nose into someone's crotch is not an acceptable way of saying 'hello.'

i.. I do not need to suddenly stand straight up when I'm lying under the coffee table

j.. I must shake the rainwater out of my fur before entering the house.

k.. I will not come in from outside and immediately drag my butt across the carpet.

l.. I will not sit in the middle of the living room and lick my crotch when company is over.

m.. The cat is not a squeaky toy; so when I play with him and he makes that noise, it's usually not a good thing.
