About Oscar

Oscar has been waiting a long time for the right foster or forever family to spot him. What he wants most is a soft couch, a calm home, and people who appreciate an old soul. At around 8 years old, Oscar is a sweet, steady pup who’s happiest sharing space with his people and hanging out quietly indoors. He gets along well with kids over 7, is friendly with cats, and often enjoys making friends with female dogs—he’s just not interested in male canine company. Oscar relishes walks and prefers to be outside when the weather is nice. A securely fenced yard would be great for him, giving him freedom to sniff and explore at his own pace. If there’s a cozy spot on the couch or a pillow for him, he’s quick to settle in for a cuddle. Oscar’s solid with his basic commands and house training, and fits in easily with a mellower, affectionate family. If you’re looking for a loving, reliable companion, Oscar could be the one.
