About Oscar

Meet Oscar! This charming 8-year-old terrier mix is looking for a loving home to start his next chapter. After losing his beloved owner, Oscar hopes to find a human companion to cherish and spend his days with. He enjoys leisurely walks and is a fantastic walking buddy, always ready for a stroll on a leash. Oscar recently had a spa day and took it like a champ, only fussing a little about his feet. He has been keeping his kennel clean overnight and does his business promptly when let outside in the morning. Having previously lived with a cat, he is comfortable sharing his space with feline friends. Oscar is also laid-back around other dogs, preferring to mind his own business instead of seeking out their company. Oscar deserves a cozy home where he can relax, enjoy gentle walks, and feel safe and loved again. His golden years can be wonderful with the right person by his side. Could you be the one to give Oscar the love and comfort he craves? Ready to make Oscar part of your family? What are you waiting for? Apply today!
