| I am a very lucky boy to have been taken into the DRNA system clear back in March 2006! I think my people got divorced and I was dumped at the vet’s office. Well, the bad news continued. I was heartworm positive. I got the treatment I needed and I was going to a new home…then they changed their mind. I just ended up hanging out with my foster mom for 4 years unnoticed. I didn’t say anything and neither did she. We were good buddies and she got me toys to carry around and hide. I am an active boy and very agile so I should be my handsome, buff self soon. There is also a bit of confusion on how old I am. I have a big stack of vet records that make me out to be somewhere between 9 and 12. I really don’t care and neither should you. I am in pretty good shape other than a bit of right heart enlargement with a murmur due to those past heartworms. I was on enalapril but the Doc says it may be unnecessary. While I am skinnying up, we will see if I have any coughing or become lethargic. He said the big vet specialists have kind of changed their minds on what good this drug might do. I just had my teeth cleaned and even though I am already missing some, the report was pretty good. I have one molar with some gum disease but the Doc said not to mess with it now. Let’s get weight off and see about the heart thing. I eat just fine. Now on to the important stuff…. I am an awesome dog! I am attentive, loving, patient and you are the most important concern I have. I do well with house training. I was used to my person being home with me most all of the time. If you are not, it might take a little adjustment in my schedule. I don’t mind other dogs though I don’t really want to play with them either. I told you, it is all about YOU! I am an excellent watch dog for you too. No garbage men, UPS drivers or postal workers will be stealing our stuff! I adore fluffy toys! I carry them around and sometimes hide them. I can catch them if you toss them to me too. Kids are acceptable but I don’t want them trying to pick me up. I am too big for that! Cats are useless creatures and I might bark at them. They might be trying to take stuff too, sneaky felines. I ride nicely in the car. I can sleep in a crate though I like to sleep with you better. I’ve had enough of this moving around. I want a Forever Home! Can it please be with you? I am one cool dog! I think you will especially fall in love with my floppy hound lips. Adopt me!!! ****Applicants should be willing to drive to Ellicott City, Maryland (10 miles south of Baltimore) to meet and adopt Oscar. His adoption fee is $150.**** |
