Fergus, the Dog of the Day
Name: Fergus
Age: Six years old
Gender: Male Breed: Border Collie
Home: Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
 
   When I first brought Fergus home to my parents' house, they weren't too sure whether or not we could keep this high-energy dog. But he soon melted the hearts of both my parents. He is incredibly easy to train, he always listens, and never ceases to amaze us with his brilliance on a regular basis. He doesn't like the mail-man very much and is very protective of his owners and home territory; he's even been known to scare off a bear to protect his family while holidaying in the mountains!

    His favorite things to do are trying to herd our cat Bootsie around the house, go for long walks at the dog park, holidays at the cabin, and visiting with his dad and brother (Cat and Charlie). He also enjoys sneaking into the guest bedroom to catch a snooze on the bed!

    Fergus is always very affectionate and incredibly loyal, he's a wonderful companion and our family enjoys every minute spent with him... except for when he sneaks into the house with muddy feet!
