About Oscar

Meet Oscar, the Goodest Boy With a Resume! This 4-year-old Border Collie mix has a heart of gold and a brain that never stops working. He is skilled enough to help with laundry and clean up his own toys, making him more than just a cute face. When you ask him to pick something up, he takes it seriously. Oscar is a smart, well-trained dog who knows commands like sit, stay, down, and leave it. He loves to show off his skills and is eager to learn more. He even has a quirky trick where he’ll play hide and seek, making sure to get your attention if you forget he’s there. This loyal sidekick is great with kids and other dogs, so he’d fit beautifully into a family. However, he needs a cat-free home because his chasing instincts kick in around felines.
