My story

Oscar is 4 years old and 80lbs and will need a dominant owner that has a consistent schedule and safe environment to train him. I saved him from a situation that was not gonna be good for him at around 3 months old and have had him ever since. He is a high energy, rambunctious boy and has the potential to be a great addition to a family with the proper training and household. I have not been consistent with him do to time constraints and i do not have anyone that is able to handle him while i am away so in that im doing him a huge disservice and it pains me that he cant enjoy his life fully because of me. He has bitten 4 people over the span of 4 years and most recently fall 2025. Hes very territorial but i think with consistent training, he can be mild mannered.The fee will go towards a an initial training session that i have set for April 23rd (soonest i could get Oscar in)

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Oscar, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
