Oscar has had many homes in his short three years which has left this very sensitive Dane with an abandonment complex and a desire to be with his humans at all times. He bonds strongly and needs a human who has the time and experience to spend helping this big boy learn his new place in the family and personal space boundaries. Oscar is house trained and excellent at finding you anywhere in the house to let you know he needs to go out. He eats well in a group setting, and gets along with many dogs though has been dominant around the resident male LGD, which indicates a home with female dogs/smaller or non dominant males would be the best fit for him. He has not been destructive at all in his foster home, except for excessive scratching at doors when he is left alone or locked inside, though he does calm down and settle after a while. His favorite activities include climbing into your lap (even if he weighs as much as you), running and playing with any dog brave enough to rough house with his smiley face, and lounging on a soft spot or in the sun… He ignores the cats and farm animals for the most part but his instinct to chase and play with anything that runs from him does give the sheep and goats a bit of a fright so he is kept separate from their fields. He has been healing from happy tail (the boy is not suitable to be crated due to his crate trauma) and gaining weight at his foster home where he is finally able to run off leash and be a dog. If you are interested in meeting or learning more about this sweet boy, please fill out an application. He is looking for his forever home where he won’t be too much dog for the wrong person.
