Adopt A Dog: Oscar

Our wish list for this sweet boy includes:

• A fenced yard
• Another dog to keep him company if you have to be away from home
• No apartments
• No young children or grandchildren

Oscar is a great boy! As with many Dachshunds, if they are not kept around small children as the dog ages, they can’t stand the quick movements or loud noises that toddlers make. We do think that he would do fine in a home with children or grandchildren over 10 years of age that know how to respect a dog’s personal space.

Unfortunately, Oscar lost most of his teeth in his recent dental. He only has 4 left, 2 canines and 2 incisors. He’ll need softened hard food for the next month, and then you can start adding hard small bites of kibble to transition him over to hard foods, but no hard treats.

Oscar gets along with other dogs just fine. He loves to wander around in a fenced yard and he loves a doggie door. He does need the fenced yard but it’s not necessary that you have the doggie door.

Oscar comes with his own bed and his wire crate that came from his original owners as well as a few other items. Please consider giving Oscar his last forever home. He’s a wonderful dog and will do great in your home if you’ll just give him a chance.
