New Member......

Hi Members, My name is Barb & I live in Bali Indonesia.....whilst I am new member I have been a Staffy owner for 2 decades.
Murphy’s Journey

Murphy was found wandering the back streets of Redfern Sydney Australia in torrential rain by RSPCA.
After a few months of waiting for his forever home with no luck his life was scheduled to end......but...........

The Staffy Rescue Sydney noticed his profile on the RSPCA site & rescued him from death row hours before.....
His age was assessed at 1 - 1 & a half years... also that he had been badly abused... I adopted Murphy in 2010... his Eyes were noted as his prominent feature on his paperwork

Our relocation to Bali Indonesia in 2014 was certainly an experience for this Gorgeous Boy....He settled into Island Life with ease , became a regular fixture in the Offices of Yayasan Solemen Indonesia, had his own Solemen T-Shirt & attended many of their outdoor Events ...where I went Murph was my shadow.....

Murph won the Hearts of many expats & locals, refused to walk on the beach as the pathway gave him far more social interaction as most knew him by name....I could never get him to walk past 2 particular restaurants without buying him breakfast as he knew they had Doggy Menu’s...lol, ......gained the respect of the Bali Beach dogs with his calm & passive nature, survived a Cobra bite, took his job seriously keeping the resident rats at bay & the Sanur Bemo/taxi drivers all were accommodating when he would jump in when he decided he had enough walking. lol

In March 2017 Murphy’s health issues began.....a very long story...however, 7 operations to remove reoccurring mouth tumors, combined with a heart condition he remained a Staunch Staffy trouper throughout. As only Staffy’s do.

Murphy was described by many as a Special Soul, A Love Bug. A True Gentleman & showed gratitude everyday to the end of his journey.

Thank you to all that has read Murphy’s story & I am hoping through this site I am able to find a breeder in Indonesia of an English Blue Staffy to love.

Can anyone help?

Hi from me & Katy What an amazing story & a beautiful boy he must have been

Hi Jen & Katy....thank you for the Welcome......  & your comment re Murhpy's Story.....he was a beautiful boy & will be missed by many....a major exercise relocating Murphy & Midnight (my 20 year old cat ) to Bali..... Midnight passed over this year also just before her 26th Birthday...the preparations,paperwork & coordination for their flight from Australia to Jakarta...then a 2 day journey by land from Jakarta to Bali....I'm not sure who was more excited when they arrived at their destination me or Murphy.....Midnight however ignored me & settled straight on the bed  ....I have know doubt she reassured Murphy throughout their journey that I would be on the other end waiting....as I am somewhat tec challenged lol I am slowly trying to navigate through the site.... Is there a particular section on the site to post that I am wanting to buy or adopt/rescue in Indonesia..... I am hoping someone here may be able to help?

I don't think this forum allows buying/selling, although there are rescue centres who advertise furry buddies looking for forever homes. Not in Indonesia, though.

You could try the Indonesian Kennel Club as a first port of call...

I understand that, but they might be able to give you some ideas of, say, rescue organisations that might have pups/young dogs waiting for homes.

Buying a non pedigree is always a bit of a gamble. There are some genetic problems that need to be tested for, and most non-pedigree breeders wouldn't do them.

Hi Jen,  That she did ....she developed diabetes just before her 25th Birthday....& I decided not to start injecting her twice a day at her age....her eyesight was effected very quickly & her last 6 months she was totally blind but knew her way around & managed extremely well....however she still managed to be boss lol ....Murphy would stand near the steps down to the garden so she wouldn't fall until she mastered them without sight....

Hello Murphy, welcome to the forum

There was another Staffy Owner on here 9 years ago from Indonesia
