Synopsis: Mr. Higgins, a Scottish terrier longs for a home, but no one can see past his rambunctious and spirited behavior. Finally, a family headed by two dads recognizes his worth and rescues him. Mr. Higgins then discovers what love and acceptance genuinely are.Also available:Mr. Higgins Takes a StandMr. Higgins to the RescueAbout Mr. Higgins:In 2014, the authors David Preece and Jim Webber adopted a black Scottish terrier who was a shy, nervous, and somewhat suspicious mid-life rescue dog. &‘Mr. Higgins&’ (the fitting name he came to us with) gradually emerged from his shell and enjoyed his new life in his forever home. Still, on guard with most strangers, Mr. Higgins learned to return love while protecting his home and keeping his dads to their daily routines. Not a fan of pats on the head, &‘Higgins&’ prefers a light touch on his sides and burrowing into a safe space. He loves walks, other dogs, treats, and – as a born outfielder – plays fetch.
