This is Oscar. Oscar's rescue story began when he found himself at a "high-kill" shelter in the Big Apple (New York City) around the time of the Academy Awards show, which is how he became known as "Oscar." Oscar won the hearts of everyone he has met, from shelter, kennel and transport volunteers to the foster couple he currently resides with. Oscar further distinguished himself by being one of only two foster dogs that the couple's super-submissive male golden retriever (Vinny) has been comfortable playing with! Oscar is puppy-like and LOVES to play. In addition to Vinny, Oscar also peacefully cohabitates with two older female dogs. He shows no signs of aggression around food or treats. Whenever his people are home, Oscar has the run of the home. At night, the entire pack sleeps in the bedroom where there are a number of comfortable options to choose from. Occasionally, Oscar will join the couple and the little-old-lady dog on the bed. A word about cats . . . Cats, belong on Broadway, where the award is called the Tony, not the Oscar . . . Hello! Cats and Oscar sadly, do not blend. Therefore, because his foster people have 2 cats, when his people are away at work, Oscar stays in a super-size crate. He does not seem to mind much, as his people try to make it as comfortable and inviting as possible and always leave him with something very special (that he only gets when he's in the crate) to chew on. If not for those pesky cats, we think Oscar would be fine with the run of the house when his people are out. He is housebroken and shows no signs of anxiety or destructive behavior.
