Oscar is the ultimate "lovable doof." This giant teddy bear became an instant staff favorite with his easy-going personality and gentle tail wags. He's a big, sweet goofball who doesn't quite realize his own size, and he's ready to find his new family! Kid-Approved: He has successfully lived with children as young as 6 and loves his humans. Dog Friendly: He plays beautifully with other dogs and loves making new canine friends. House Trained: He already knows to go potty outside! Private Diner: He can be a little protective of his food, so he just needs a quiet, separate space to eat his meals in peace. Staff Favorite: Low-maintenance, affectionate, and guaranteed to steal your heart. Ready for 105 pounds of joy? Apply to adopt Oscar today! Ready to Adopt?
