Oscar is a tiny, white, and exceptionally fluffy boy who is estimated to be around 3 years old. With his Maltese Chihuahua looks, he weighs about 15 pounds of pure lap dog potential. Oscar is currently in a loving foster home where he gets along famously with his seven small foster siblings. He’s learning all about toys and treats and has shown great gentleness with an elderly foster sibling, taking corrections well. Oscar also enjoys a game of "musical bowls" with his housemates, sharing food with no issues!
Ideal Home
Oscar is a bit of a slow-burn romance kind of guy; he takes his time earning trust, but once he loves you, he's incredibly loyal. He’s a cuddle bug who loves snuggling on the couch or in his dog bed. Oscar would thrive in a home with a yard, as he adores spending time outdoors, seeking shade under sunflowers or watching birds. While he hasn't been tested with children, older children who can understand and respect his need for a calm, gentle environment would be best. He might be okay with cats, but since he may eventually want to play, a home with other pets is recommended over a home with only one cat.
