We are delighted to introduce Fera and Oscar Berg as the Keys Animal Care Center February 2026 Patients of the Month. Below, you will find some photos of these two sweet pups, as well as a brief bio written by their fantastic human, Vicky.

​

"Oscar is our 12-yr old Border Collie-Aussie mix. 

We adopted Oscar when he was just 9 months old, and fell head over heels for our little shadow. Oscar, or as I like to call him our little black bear, is still spunky for his age, and has a lot of miles left on those little paws. 

Oscar's most favorite thing in the world to do is hop in the car with the windows down (riding shotgun of course) and head into town for a pup cup and smell the warm ocean breeze. If he is not cruising in the car, you can find him at the Higgs beach dog park making new friends, walking and sniffing through Fort Zach, or at home with Mom and Dad, looking for extra snacks and sharing Mom's dinner. Oscar is selective who he lets into our home but if you have a treat, you just might be let into Oscar's circle

Oscar is the love of our life, and we are so lucky to have him. Oscar spent most of his life growing up in ND with a brother Wally, who unfortunately crossed over the rainbow bridge last August. He now gets to spend his days with a sister, Fera (chocolate lab). 

​

Miss Fera came into our life after losing our Wally and she settled right into our home and gave us the love that we were missing. We just fell in love with her instantly. Fera is a 6-year-old chocolate lab who has the biggest personality and is just the happiest girl.

The meaning of Farrah (Fera) is "happiness, joy or delight," and she is all that and more. Fera is a very playful girl and makes new friends instantly. One of Fera's favorite things to do is play tug of war with her many lamb chop toys. 

She enjoys heading to the Higgs dog park with her brother Oscar, loves getting pup cups at Starbucks, and really loves watching mom in the kitchen waiting for something to drop. Fera is currently taking a Canine Good Citizen class, and we are hopeful that she will excel in her training to become a therapy dog. She is just incredible and we quite possibly hit the doggy jackpot with her."

Thank you to the Berg family for trusting us with the care of these two darling dogs, and congratulations to Oscar and Fera for being named KACC's Patients of the Month!
