Mo & Murphy

 Canine Staff 

Meet Mo, a well-mannered Australian Shepherd with a calm and balanced temperament. His friendly and steady nature makes him an excellent choice for temperament testing. Mo thrives in social settings, adapting easily to new people and animals, showcasing the intelligence and loyalty his breed is known for.

Meet Murphy, a spirited young Catahoula mix with a sweet and curious personality. His playful energy and friendly demeanor make him a joy to be around. Murphy’s intelligence and adaptability shine through in every interaction, making him an ideal candidate for temperament testing!


Singleton

Sir Singleton was born and raised on this property! He has an exceptional temperament and working drive – the perfect dog to introduce to new dogs for temperament tests! He is the bestest boy, takes his job very seriously, and eagerly welcomes scared or nervous dogs. His favorite past time is playing fetch with whoever will play!
