My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Oscar
Don’t let my age fool you! I can still be a spunky pup or your best velcro dog ever and sleep in bed with you. I’m pretty sweet but I need the human touch of a family who can handle a dog with a hearing issue. I love to go for car rides or out shopping with you! I have a lot of life left to live. Are you ready for some companionship? All BCAR dogs are placed as indoor family pets. No electric fences, please. Visit pets every Saturday 11:00 am to 2:00 pm (706-268-1346) or visit our website for adoption information at www.bigcanoeanimalrescue.org Go online and fill out an application, call and make an appointment to visit.

• We have a financial program to spay or neuter puppies and kittens after adoption when they are ready.
• We take the time to match the right dog and cat with the right owner.

WHAT MAKES OUR DOGS/CATS SO SPECIAL?

• All our dogs receive Obedience Training and know on average 5 to 8 different commands
• Our trainer, Doris Dressler, is a CPDT (Certified Professional Dog Trainer).
• Field Training is a daily exercise program for each dog and reinforces the obedience training they receive.
