Why I need a new home

Does not get along with other pet

My story

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


Oscar is an amazing dog. He's great with all humans (he loves everybody) and plays great with every dog he's encountered while I've had him. He's a medium-sized old man, but he loves running and walking. I'm an active person, but he can out run and walk me by miles. I adopted him from the Atlanta Humane Society two months ago after he had been there for 10 days. I was told that the family he was with before surrendered him because they weren't able to keep up with his active lifestyle. (I assume there was a sickness in the family or it was an elderly adult.) While Oscar has been an amazing addition to my life, I also have a senior cat who is 8 years old. Oscar is tolerate of the cat, but they cannot coexist. He loves to chase my cat, and I've had to keep them separated by an animal gate. I think Oscar belongs in a home with plenty of human love and even another dog who can keep him company. While cats may be not be his favorite companion, Oscar loves all people and dogs.
