My story

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

A23213 Oscar is a gray and white colored, approximately 3-year-old, 73-pound, neutered male, American Staffordshire.
He entered the shelter as a stray on 10-28-2024 and was altered by our medical staff.
Oscar is a friendly, eager and excited boy here at the shelter. Our staff says he is very friendly, playful boy who loves people. Saying he is always eager and happy when someone approaches his kennel. He will do playful flips and spins in excitement to be with people and playing. He was easy to leash but pulls in excitement to be out exploring. He will need some additional training in basic commands and on the leash. But he loves people and is eager to learn and please. Staff believes he will be a great family pet for of all ages. He shows a friendly interest in other dogs here as he approached each kennel door and greeted the dog inside as we walked by, tail wagging the whole time. Oscar will be a fun-loving family member in his new forever home.
