NASHVILLE, Tennessee (WTVF) – As temperatures drop, a family desperately searches for their dog.
Fergus is not your normal dog. The 200-pound Irish dog would be easy to spot anywhere and still disappear from the weekend.
Mickey McKay, his wife and Fergus were arrested at the intersection of Franklin Road and Tyne Boulevard on Saturday evening when they were behind and the car windows were broken. Fergus was kicked out of the car and landed on the road.
The Dash camera video shows Fergus limping from the crash to Judson Baptist Church.
“We lost sight of him and have been looking for him ever since,” his owner McKay said.
The family has had Fergus since he was 2 months old.
McKay and his wife are empty nests, but the joy of having Fergus filled the house.
“Fergus is a family member,” McKay said. “We got him when he was a puppy and getting home last night felt so calm without him.”
McKay says Fergus is very kind. If you see Fergus, approach him slowly, he may still be afraid of the accident.
McKay and his wife suffered minor injuries from the crash, but said all their energy has been focused on finding Fergus.
If you see him, contact McKay’s daughter, Meredith, at 203-858-9837. A reward is offered.
