About Oscar

Oscar, a small Yorkshire Terrier, has a distinctive underbite that adds to his character. At around 7 years old, he carries a rich story of resilience. After being abandoned and living on the streets of Memphis, Oscar found a family in Nashville. Unfortunately, when they moved, he struggled to adjust and often ran away. Thankfully, a kind woman discovered him, contacted the rescue, and now Oscar is ready for a fresh start with a loving adopter. He thrives on affection and playful moments, relishing in sunbathing and belly rubs. Oscar seeks a peaceful environment with someone who understands his journey and appreciates his loyal nature. He might do best in a home with fewer pets to prevent him from feeling overwhelmed, and while he has a fondness for cats, he needs guidance to stay focused. Fully vaccinated, neutered, and microchipped, Oscar is set for his next adventure. His adoption fee is $275. If you think you can give him the loving home he deserves, don’t wait any longer!
