Fergus's Story

Meet Fergus!<br/><br/>Floppy ears? Check. Giant puppy paws? Check. A mouth full of tiny little needle teeth? DOUBLE CHECK!<br/><br/>Meet Fergus, an absolutely adorable little guy who's under six months old and living life in FULL PUPPY MODE!<br/><br/>While we're not entirely sure what breeds make up this handsome boy, we suspect there could be some Cane Corso in the mix. That's just our best guess, though! What we do know is that Fergus has some impressive paws to grow into, and his future family should be prepared for the possibility of a rather large adult dog.<br/><br/>Fergus is ALL puppy, and we mean ALL puppy. He's energetic, curious, playful, mouthy, and still figuring out how the world works. Those adorable little teeth? He's still learning what they're for and, more importantly, what they aren't for! Because of his enthusiastic puppy behavior, we believe Fergus would do best in a home with older, dog-savvy children who understand how to interact safely with a growing puppy.<br/><br/>We're still getting to know Fergus, and it's been wonderful watching more of his personality emerge each day! We're currently on a mission to discover what really makes this little guy tick. So far, frozen chew treats have been a big hit, giving those teething gums some relief while keeping him happily occupied.<br/><br/>Here's the most important thing we want Fergus's future family to understand: Puppies don't come knowing the rules. They need someone willing to teach them.<br/><br/>Fergus will need a family prepared for everything that comes with raising a puppy: potty training, appropriate chewing, basic manners, socialization, and learning how to settle. Structure, routine, patience, and consistent positive reinforcement will be essential in helping him grow into a confident, well-adjusted adult dog.<br/><br/>There will be frustrating moments, plenty of learning opportunities, and probably a few things that get chewed along the way. That's puppyhood!<br/><br/>We know Fergus is ridiculously cute. Trust us, we've seen those ears! But we're not just looking for someone who falls in love with his puppy face. We're looking for someone who's ready to fall in love with the entire journey of raising him.<br/><br/>Fergus has so much growing and learning ahead of him, and he's going to need someone committed to guiding him through it all. But for the right person or family, all that effort could lead to something truly special.<br/><br/>If you're ready for the adventure of puppyhood and excited to help this little guy become the best version of himself, Fergus just might be your perfect match!<br/>------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br/>If you would like to meet Fergus, please submit an application for him on our website https://www.friendsofmichigan.org/adoptable-dogs. He is neutered, up to date on all age appropriate vaccines, heartworm negative, microchipped, and on monthly flea, tick, and heartworm prevention. His adoption fee is $300, which covers part of the medical care she will receive.<br/><br/>**Please note that the breed listed for each of our dogs is a rough estimate unless DNA results are provided in their Bio. All strays have rough estimates of their age based on the condition of their teeth.<br/>Each dog is different, so each adoption is different. Our adoption process might require multiple visits to the shelter before our dogs can go home. Or they may be ready on the first visit. It really depends on the individual dog and the potential adopters. Once we receive your application, the Dog Staff will contact you to discuss meeting our dogs.
