Ferris, the Dog of the Day
Name: Ferris
Age: Thirteen years old
Gender: Male Breed: German Shepherd, Beagle
Home: Guilford, Maine, USA
 
   This is Ferris, (short for Ferriswheel). My Ferris Boy is very special to me! I got him for my 13th Birthday at a Humane Society in Big Spring, Texas. He was three years old at the time of adoption. He is such a joy! I love him so much. We have been through thick and thin together. I must say he is the perfect dog. Very well mannered, very smart (I taught him how to sit, stay, come, shake, and lay down in 30 minutes after getting him!), and he loves unconditionally.

    Ferris doesn't like to play with toys but we love to roll around together and play fight! He is excellent with my 3 1/2 year old daughter also. I don't have to leash him, he always stays by my side and listens to my commands every single time. He is getting a little older now, people just can't believe how old he is. He can't hear as well as he used to, most of the time I have to yell for him to hear me in the house when I am calling him as well as outside.

    I am so lucky to have him. He has brightened my life so much. I want to show the whole world my best friend!!!
