On Friday, July 30, 2021, Fergus, a 1-year-old lab puppy’s life ended tragically. Our Island community mourns Fergus’ death. We want to do something positive to honor him.
We will hold a Dog Walk for Fergus to raise money for Fergus Dog Rescue an Island-based 501(c)3 tax exempt charity, whose mission is to shelter, foster and rehome abandoned, neglected and abused dogs. After the walk there will be a raffle, beverages and discussions about legislation we are hoping to introduce called the Fergus' Law.
Fergus's Law will be aimed at preventing a tragedy like this from ever happening again. The general concept of the legislation will be that before a dog can be put to sleep for behavioral reasons a local rescue must be contacted or the dog must be evaluated by a person who is certified in canine behavior.
