Yakima, WA

Size

Details

Story

Meet Oscar, a ten month old German Shepherd/Greyhound mix weighing around 50 pounds.Oscar was brought in to us by someone, unfortunately we didn`t have room for him at the time but we gave them a bag of dog food to help with his care and placed them on our waitlist. However, someone informed us that they left him tied up to a trash can on the green way with the bag of food we had given him. We can`t imagine ever doing that, and Oscar is most definitely not trash. This boy is active, outgoing and smart as a whip. He picks up information quickly and although he is a teenager and still learning his manners he has a ton of potential. We see this guy doing really well with his new family.This pet is available for adoption on 5/2/2025 at 5:06 PM at the Yakima Humane Society adoption center.
