Oscar arrived to out house about 9pm last night , he is a very lively playful dog,he is the same as my own dog Polly once he has a toy he will drop it at your feet for you to play with him. We played fetch on the green for a while and he is brings the ball back each time . Oscar and Polly got on great last night sleeping in sitting room there was not a sound out of either of them all night. When I came down this morning Oscar was there to greet me with his tail wagging. ![]()
Oscars full day in our house went very well , he had two walks and loads of play, he does pull a bit when walking but also stops when u call him and walks back to you , A little bit of training and he will be great walking. We let him off the lead to run through the green and he was great , did not go to far and came when called . He sits and stays when asked and also gives the paw . He was not as lively last night after all his activities during the day and we did have to turn the telly up a little as he does snore a bit
. This morning when I came down at 6.30am he didn’t even get out of bed just looked up at me , he is so gentle and good .P6240002.JPG

Well myself Oscar and Polly had a lovely day today ,We went for a long walk this morning. Oscar is getting better at walking did not pull as much and if he does all it takes is a Oscar come back and he will walk back to you . I brushed him today and he stood still for me so that was good . Yesterday Oscar played with some children on the green and had a great time , when he got tired of fetching the ball he just lay on the green. The post man came this morning which starts Polly barking but there wasn’t a sound out of Oscar.P6250039.JPG

Oscar has met loads of dogs out walking over the last few days and not once did he bark or try get over to any of them , he just walked on .
He is also getting used of our little routine of drying off paws at the door
. The only time he barks is if a toy he is playing with goes under chiar or couch and he can’t get it !P6260049.JPG

Oscar is with us just over a week now and has settled in really well. When you sit on ground beside him to pet him he will turn over for a belly rub. We had a thunder storm the other day and it did’t bother him at all while Polly was hiding under the table . He has got brushed every day for the last few days and really likes it . Got a harness off Marie and has helped a lot with the walking , I am now able to bring the both dogs
together which is great. Oscar still zig zags a bit on the pavement but I’m sure that won’t last long .P6300003.JPG

Beautiful photos ![]()
Oscar got his hair cut on Sunday and was really good.P7040206.JPG
Oscar has had a very busy week , we had another visitor to our house , my brothers puppy Lu Lu and it didn’t bother Oscar when she was jumping all over him and biting his ears
. Oscar also loves getting wrapped in a towel to be dried off after a walk in the rain. He would be such a great addition to any family .P7090232.JPG

Oscar is still doing great. He never gets up on the couch not like polly who anytime I look around she is on the couch
. Oscar will come over and sit at your feet and if you tap the couch he will only then get up and sit beside you and be asleep in a second.P6290105.JPG
They are indeed beautiful photos. Just look at those eyes, they say it all. He is a beautiful dog with a beautiful nature to go with it.
Obviously wonderful with children as well.

Oscar is still with me and I have to say he has helped me so much to get over the loss of my lovely Dixie . Oscar makes me laugh everyday.
I was watering the garden with a hose today and Oscar decides he would like a drink from the hose
So then I got a bottle of water and tried him with that and yes he had no problem drinking from the bottle , How handy is that on a long walk !!!!IMG_0168[1].JPG
Very handy indeed. I have a pair of spoiled brats who have to have a proper bowl. Then, when you don’t want them to they will drink out of a puddle.
