My story

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

Meet Oscar!
Oscar is a gorgeous 4-year-old Lab/Rhodesian mix with a zest for life and a heart full of love. He originally came to the rescue as a young puppy with his siblings, was adopted, and later returned when life circumstances changed—through it all, Oscar has remained the sweetest boy.

This big, handsome guy weighs about 80 lbs and has a unique look to his lower jaw. Oscar returned to the rescue with osteomyelitis in his mandible, possibly from an old injury. This condition is an infection of the bone and was successfully treated with antibiotics. While the infection is gone, it left behind some extra bone growth on his lower jaw. This does not cause him pain, and he does not need medication or ongoing treatment—it’s simply a cosmetic quirk that makes him extra special.

Oscar is thriving now and is such a joy to work with. He is good with female dogs, cats, and kids, and best of all—he is HOUSEBROKEN! He has been neutered, fully vaccinated, dewormed, and heartworm tested negative.

His adoption fee is $250.

Oscar is ready to finally find the forever home he deserves. Could that be you?

Additional adoption info

Adoption fees BEGIN at $100 for cats and kittens but are higher based on care an animal has recieved. Dogs and puppies START at $150 then go up depending on care the animal needs (this means they may be more). An application and references are necessary and I reserve the right to deny adoption if not a good match.

More about this rescue

We do this to save the numerous animals put to sleep each year because of over crowed shelters.
