About Oscar Meyer SM

Oscar is a lovable little guy, a delightful mix of Dachshund and Pit Bull Terrier with a dash of mystery. He sports a long body and short legs, giving him the endearing look of a hot dog with a Pittie smile. At just over a year old, Oscar is an affectionate and playful companion. He enjoys plenty of energy-filled playtime but also loves curling up for cuddles afterward. He gets along well with other dogs and sleeps soundly in his crate. Mostly potty trained, Oscar is eager to learn and improve. He's got a fun side too; with a knack for rearranging dog beds to his liking, he often enjoys an interior design project. He can be a bit of a foodie, sometimes attempting to sneak snacks or figuring out how to open Tupperware. This behavior likely stems from a past of food insecurity. Sweet-natured and just a touch mischievous, Oscar is looking for a family that will provide him patience, structure, love, and playtime. He promises a heartwarming companionship, with perhaps a little furniture rearrangement along the way. Adoption fee is waived for local adoptions in Texas. Interested?
