Murphy is a 1-year-old Redbone Coonhound mixed-breed in Seneca, SC, who needs $1,500 for barium diagnostic testing, exploratory surgery, and a possible enterotomy.

My relationship with Murphy started one year ago. I got a call from my brother who is a paramedic that these 2 dogs were found walking down the street near his station. After seeing the first picture of him I was in love. He's been my big boy ever since. He goes everywhere with me. A night without him spread across my feet and legs makes my bed feel empty. When we met, I was in a very rough spot in my life. Depression and anxiety were an everyday factor for me. Murphy is one of if not the best medications I could have asked for to help me.
