About Fergus
Fergus is a distinguished older gent who enjoys simple things in life. He is excited to go for a little walk, enjoys sitting in front of the fire, and will occassionally roll a ball around in his mouth.
Fergus is wonderful with other dogs. He doesn't play, but is happy to co-exist with other dogs. He would appreciate a home with companionship most of the time - either a dog friend, or human. Fergus' gentle and calm disposition makes him ideally suited to an older person wanting companionship.
We are looking for a home for Fergus without young children, as he would prefer a much quieter life.
Fergus has lived with a cat before, but in care he has been a little over-interested in cats. He may be okay in a home with a confident cat who has lived with dogs before, but really we would prefer a home with no other pets. Fergus is all terrier and will eagerly chase birds or pocket pets.
Fergus made his way into the care of Leema Rescue as his older owner moved into an aged care facility. Fergus is a purebred border terrier with ANKC papers.
Medical notes
Fergus has had a full dental in July 2018 - so his teeth are now in perfect order.
Fergus has arthritis and requires life long medication. This medication is Cartrophen costing approximately <$150 every 6 months.
Fergus recently had blood work that showed no medical conditions. This was expected, as border terriers are well known for living well into their teens.
