Oscar updates in Feb 2012 Hello Alice,
Here's an update and 2 pictures of Oscar. We adopted Oscar when he was a little puppy from GSGRR on 4/30/2008. We kept his GSGRR name. Oscar is doing great. He is almost 4 years old now. Every morning, my husband walks him before work. Every afternoon either my son or I play ball with him in the backyard. Oscar loves to retrieve a tennis ball or a frisbee for a small treat. My husband built a pitching mound in our backyard so that my high school son can practice pitching. Oscar loves it when my husband and son play pitch and catch. He gets all excited that "the boys" are playing in his yard. Oscar knows to stay clear away from the baseball and will lay in the shade and watch. During the day, Oscar follows me from room to room in our house and keeps me company. We keep our blinds on some of our windows pulled up so that he can look out the window to see what's going on in our neighborhood (see attached picture). At night when we are watching T.V. he lays at our feet. He is a beautiful, very lovable dog with a great personality. Oscar is a wonderful companion and we love him dearly. We are glad that we adopted him. Our address has not changed.

Updates from his new momma- May 9, 2008 Attached are a few pictures of Oscar. He is doing great! Oscar is now sleeping in his kennel in Michael's room every night.
Oscar went to his forever home on April 30, 2008 and will be living in Slidell,LA. Update in January 2009: Malay Attached are some recent pictures of Oscar. We thought you'd like to see how much he has grown. He's a big boy now. Hope you and Mita are doing well. Don, ChrisAnn & Michael Update in September 2008- Oscar is growing so fast. He weighs almost
50 lbs at 6 months of age. We evacuated during Hurricane Gustav to
Arkansas and Oscar was an angel during our car trip. Attached is a
picture of Oscar sleeping on Michael's lap during our car trip. Oscar
was also very good at my in-laws house and we were so glad that he
was crate trained. We continue to work on obedience. Oscar does very
well walking on a leash which we do at least twice a day. He is friendly
to other people and dogs and stays by us when we walk. We will begin
an 8-week course at Pet Smart beginning Sept. 12. All three of us will
attend with Oscar so it will be a family event. We look forward to
learning "new techniques" especially getting him to come
on command when we call his name. Oscar continues to be a good boy
and a great playmate for Michael. After school, they often run around
and play in the yard. Attached is a picture of Michael and Oscar on
Michael's first day of Jr. High School. We all love watching Oscar
chase dragon flys in the yard which is his favorite thing to do. Believe
it or not, we've actually seen him catch one. Oscar is also very sweet
and gives us kisses. We like to say he is a "leg and toe licker". Update from his new family on May 2, 2008: Hi Malay & Judy,
Name: Oscar |
