Oscar ~ Cattle dog x ~ On Trial 14/9/19

I’m Oscar - a playful and cheerful 4 year old Cattle Dog x German Short haired Pointer. I am a total people dog who loves spending time my family members both young and old. I’m great at meeting new people and want to be everyone’s friend. I smile a lot and wag my tail a lot and am really quite adorable (so everyone says!)

Two of my favourite things are water and toys - I adore splashing about in water with my toys. On a hot summers day I’ll paddle in a clam pool in the yard to cool myself down. If you live near a lake or the beach I would be in my element - happily joining you for walks or runs along the sand or around the neighbourhood. I’m a whizz at playing fetch - bringing balls and other toys back to you so that you can throw them for me again.

I would thrive with an active couple or family who want a true companion and are keen to include me in their daily activities. I have lived with 4 other dogs (including 3 little dogs) - and I loved all but one of them (Roxy and I didn’t always see eye to eye - but hey, it’s hard to please all the ladies!). I’m very playful with the dogs that I’m buddies with - we play rumbles and games of chasies and I don’t mind if they boss me around. At times I’m selective with some dogs that I meet so my new family will need to be aware of this . Given that I’m so people focused I would really suit a home where I’m the only fur-child so that I can happily hog all the attention for myself !

I am fabulous with children!! I’m in foster care with two children under 4 years and I’m delightful with them . They throw the ball for me and I could play that game with them all day long . I’m super gentle taking treats from the kids and don’t jump up on them at all. Occasionally I give them a loving kiss on the face or a happy whack of my wagging tail (I don’t mean to whack them - it’s just me being a happy tail wagger!)

I’m currently living in a huge yard on small acreage and I love having room to gallop around in . I’ll keep myself entertained whilst my foster family is out - alternating between playing with my toys or lazing about in the sun. When my humans come home I’m so excited to see them - I get lots of pats and rewards for being so good.

I really am a loyal and loving boy who will win you over with my good manners and sparkling personality. I am very much a people dog who is loved by everyone who meets me - I am only being rehomed due to my old owner being ill.
