My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Fergus is the love of my life. He’s loyal, protective, loving, and everything that a Shepherd should be.
Fergus came from a police dog breeder. My husband was a policeman, but he’s not a police dog. My husband passed away unexpectedly back in March at 45. We have 4 young kids.
He is very loyal, but he doesn’t listen to me and he is A LOT of dog to handle. I don’t have to time to give him the love and training he deserves.
He NEEDS someone who has experience with his breed and training them.
He likes two of my cats who ignore him and hates the other two who run from him.
He is wonderful with my children, however he tries to herd them by pulling or nipping their butt.
He loves my dog, but is aggressive with other dogs when he first meets them. I don’t know if he would get used to other dogs. When he first meets you he’ll hate you, within 5 mins he’ll be a puddle on your lap.
Jumps on people
Not leash trained
Eats birds🤷‍♀️
Loves fetch
Thinks he’s a lap dog
Needs room to run
