A regretful surrender, this sweet eleven year old man is being returned to the program due to isolation distress behaviours, he now seeks a household to join with canine companionship.
Fergus is the epitome of a couch potato, and with another chilled out dog for company he is happy to just snooze the days away. He is not an energetic bean and only asks for a short stroll around the block and then straight back home to relax and unwind. He has lovely leash manners and plods along at a stately pace.
A ready made pet, Fergus is polite and calm in the home, and even knows a trick or two! He can “sit”, “wait”, “touch” and be asked to go to his bed. He manages flights of stairs and getting into the car on his own steam, and really loves a drive especially to the beach or to accompany you to dinner at the pub! While being left home alone is the worst, there’s nothing like chilling out on your mat while your humans enjoy a bevvy or two.
With his comically big eyes and inability to contain his tongue, you’ll find yourself losing time to just gazing upon Fergus’s adorable face - you might even find yourself hypnotically drawn in to rub those velvet ears and silky neck, and he will reward you with a gentle paw of request and a happy huffy sigh of content.
He may not be a spring chicken, but there are many years of love and laughter in this old boy, and he hopes that his perfect people will see that age is just a number and are ready to make the most of all the time together.
