Fergus

Description

In 2021, Fergus, a skinny little puppy, was surrendered to a NC shelter because at 10 weeks old he was having accidents. We had a transport scheduled for the following day, and the shelter asked if we had room for one more.  So we took him in, and he was adopted shortly after he arrived. This week we received the very sad news that his mom passed away.  We remember Fergus’ mom fondly, and we extend our deepest condolences to her family.  Fergus is very fortunate to have a family member now fostering him. While he obviously misses his mom,  we are thankful that he had a soft place to land with people who want the very best for him.  Fergus is about 5 years old and 50 pounds and doing well in his foster home. He is very good with people and lived his whole life with another dog.  His foster family has a dog who he loves to play and take walks with.  We think it best that if his new family has a dog(s) that they are about his same size. He is living with a dog trainer who has been crate training him and teaching him many new things!! She will follow him and help Fergus’ new adopters with training and acclimating him to their home. We are grateful to Fergus’ mom’s lovely family for making sure he was safe during this incredibly stressful time. Please consider stepping in and healing his broken heart.
