    The barber’s dog, and one woman’s bid to save him

    I'd love to put this in the Dog forum, but this is a great story for everyone to read! The pis and text don't copy and paste for some reason - but please check it out. Wonderful.

    This story was first published last year on The Dodo, a site about animals for people who love them.

    What a sad but wonderful story--- just before bedtime, I'm sure that will haunt me and keep me awake for a bit but it was worth it.

    I hope eventually there is a "Fergus was adopted" ending to it. Nice story, so many people helped, and cared for the poor dog!

    I did find this on Instagram: https://instagram.com/p/yko-7syzji/


    Sorry, I can't copy and paste. It says the pic was taken four weeks ago and it's Fergus and his foster sister dog.
