Oscar’s neuter surgery is medically contraindicated at this time due to lung scarring that resulted from a prior heartworm infection. He has since been fully treated for heartworm disease through Melarsomine injections at Town and Country Veterinary Hospital and is now in recovery from that treatment.
Oscar continues to receive veterinary care through Grants Lick Veterinary Hospital
• A full medical recheck was completed on 11/23/2025
• His lungs will be X rayed again at his next veterinary visit
• Oscar will remain in a pre adoption placement until he is medically cleared for neuter surgery
Oscar’s health and safety are our highest priority. Surgery will only be scheduled once his veterinarian confirms that it is safe to do so.

More about this rescue
At Cleo's Legacy, we are committed to making a positive change in the lives of homeless dogs. Our organization was founded in 2024, after founder, Alex Siska, lost her soul-dog & lifelong companion to old age.
Cleo helped pave the way for rescue work when she was brought home infested with parasites as a baby. Cleo’s brilliant joy, empathy, and love introduced Alex to open her heart for dogs found on the street and at local shelters. Through volunteer work, we saw a need when we realized there were very few volunteers in the Bracken County area, and even less funding. These predicaments didn’t stop the shelters influx of dog dumps and continued over-capacity.
Since then, Cleo’s Legacy has been dedicated to providing a variety of services for homeless dogs - including fostering, adoption, medical care, and funds toward training. We believe in the power of community and working together to make the world a better place.
