Oscar

ABOUT THIS ANIMAL:
Hello, I’m Oscar — a charming Redbone Coonhound with a nose that leads the way on long walks and a love for sunny, relaxing afternoons. I’m great with other dogs and I’m fully house trained. I know basic commands and take treats like a champ. I’m a big fan of car rides and low-key living. I do best in an adult-only home with an experienced owner who understands my protective nature. I can be very protective of my food, toys, and anything I consider mine, so caution is needed when entering my space. But when I’m ready, I’m full of smiles and even have a special “Oscar dance” to charm you for treats! If you’re looking for a loyal companion to chill with on the back porch and soak up the sun, I’m your guy.

HOW AM I WITH DOGS:
In the past, I’ve done well with some dogs and not others. If you have a dog at home, my friends at FOHA can schedule a dog introduction to see if we’re a good match.

HOW AM I WITH CATS:
No cats.

HOW AM I WITH KIDS:
No kids.

Basic commands.

MY HOUSEBREAKING AND/OR CRATING:
House trained.

Long walks, car rides, sunbathing, treats, toys.
