My name is Oscar the Man!

Oscar is basically Mr. Perfect, in my opinion.
He is the whole package... potty trained, well behaved, sweet as sugar, VERY playful, energetic, crate trained, house trained, handsome, loving and adorable, snuggly, you name it, this guy has it all wrapped up in a lowrider body.
I'm having a hard time even thinking of letting him go to somebody else so you have to be pretty perfect, like him, for me to approve your application.
A couple of German Shepherds tried to eat his head, so he looks like Stripe from the show The Gremlins, with his scars on his poor head and he doesn't like large dogs because of it.
He is also afraid of cats and will bark at them.
He needs a buddy his size (He's about 20 lb) to rough house and play with, to run around with in a securely fence yard and in the house where they can have squeaky toys and bones.
He would love someone home most of the time, but he is perfectly content in a plastic crate, he prefers that to a metal one and will not settle in a dog bed at night, he will go to the plastic crate instead.
I've taught him to wait at the top of the stairs and the bottom of the stairs until I have ascended or descended and then he can do the same but only after me.
I've also taught him to ring the bell to go out and he absolutely loves to be outside, just looking around.
When he lets you know he needs to go outside to potty, you best let him out right then!
He would LOVE to have a doggie door and a very secure fenced yard to go out into with a doggie friend to romp and play with!
I'm teaching him to sit and wait when I open a door before he goes outside, for safety reasons.
He's great on a leash and loves to ride in a car, safely buckled into his harness.
**He is absolutely terrified of fireworks and loud noises outside** so he has to have melatonin (but he can't physically eat gummies lol) or trazodone when there are going to be fireworks or very loud noises!!!
He is neutered, microchipped, has had his rabies, Bordetella, distempor-parvo booster, dewormed, heartworm negative and unprevention.

His adoption fee is $200
**Do not apply if you free feed your dog (which is not a good idea, anyway!) because Oscar would eat everyone's food. Typical dachshund behavior.
