We found Murphy in March '09. He was in a bad way when we found him (or he found us!). He was the most raggedy sorry looking dog you ever saw, he'd not long left on this earth.
When we got him home we spent countless hours getting him right, cleaning him & feeding him. Between vets fees, surgeons fees, food and shots etc it is safe to say we've spent well over €1,000 on him.
In return Murphy has shat on the kitchen floor countless times, eaten socks, towels, coats (1 worth €250), bed clothes, baby clothes, underwear, coal........basically everything. Today he broke a barely 1 month old digital camera that was pretty expensive.
Between what we have spent on him & what he has cost us in damaged goods I estimate that Murphy owes us about €2,500.
Why do we keep him around you ask.....
Just look at that face!
Not forgetting the soiled carpet we had to replace!
