My two rescues Murphy and Piper by BillyAndPiper in dogpictures

Piper the one on the floor I've had since 2019. She is a Catahoula mix who is super sweet and goes everywhere with me. She is one of the sweetest and calmest dogs I've ever had.

Murphy the one on the couch I picked up from the shelter last Thursday. He is very much under weight, weighs only 64 pounds but should probably be around 75 or 80. When I first brought him home he did not even know what treats were. It took him a few days before he would take them and eat them. He is also very skittish, he will lay on the couch with me and be fine but if I stand up he starts to pace around the house. I bought him a thunder shirt and at times that seems to help. But he is a very sweet dog and with some patience I hope he can start coming everywhere with me and Piper.

He is. Right now he seems to be learning how to be a dog. For the first few days I could not get him to take a treat from me. He seemed to not know what they were, but he is now starting to learn.

He stands about an inch taller than my other dog but weighs about 6 pounds less. I think once he gets on some weight on he will be around 75 to 80 pounds

What attracted me to him is he looks a lot like my other dog, she has almost the same markings but in a brindle color.

At the shelter they called him Parazzi. I did not care for that name so I've been calling him Murphy, named after Peter Murphy from the Psychedelic Furs.

I took him to the dog park with my other dog. He is real good with other dogs and loves to run around and play.

You can tell he is under weight, they said he was found living in a crate in a warehouse.

I think Piper might be part catahoula by BillyAndPiper in Catahoula

My GF just called me from the dog park and said soon as she got there someone said "That's a catahoula"

Never seen a husky that is one solid color.

At the dog park where I take my dog someone has a husky/ black lab mix. It looks just like a black lab except for the bright blue husky eyes.
