Puppy Oscar (On Trial 27/9/13)

Oscar is a 9 week old Boxer x German Shepherd puppy. He is an absolute sweetheart. He had his first bone yesterday and boy didn't he think it was great! He plays with my other foster pups. He will run around playing until his little legs can't take anymore then he will slink off and curl up for a snooze. He is starting to respond to his name and will sit, though only for a split second, when it is meal time. Being a puppy he just loves everyone especially if you pick him up and give him a big hug and a belly rub.

When he is outside he goes out to the grass to go to the toilet. Oscar will need to be allowed to come inside for some portion of every day so he doesn't get lonely and can bond with his family. We always recommend puppy-training classes to give your new family member the best start in life. All dogs and puppies need plenty of affection, exercise, and training. He will grow up to be a large dog.

He has only been with us for a week but he has settled in brilliantly. I have no doubt that he will make himself right at home when he gets adopted and will make his new family very happy.

For more information or to meet Oscar please phone foster carer Anne on 02 4943 3651 or 0412 837 867. Oscar is in foster care in Charlestown, NSW (Lake Macquarie, south of Newcastle).
