Oscar here – small in size, big in personality, and even bigger in bark! If you’re dreaming of a quiet little lapdog who blends into the background… keep dreaming. I was born to be a watchdog – apartment or condo life just wouldn’t suit my vocal talents. I’ve got personality for days – maybe even a little too much, depending on who you ask (but what do they know?).

When we first meet, I’d really appreciate it if you take it slow. No sudden movements, no looming over me like the Jolly Green Giant – I’m 10 pounds soaking wet, so from my perspective, you’re kind of terrifying. If I feel cornered or unsure, I might react – but if you let me set the pace, we’ll be friends in no time.

Now, you might be wondering how a Chihuahua mix like me ended up at Animatch. Believe it or not, I’m a Northern boy from Kuujjuarapik. Yep, way up north – where snow falls sideways and your breath freezes before you finish a sentence. Let’s just say my former family realized that tiny dogs and tundra don’t mix. No amount of doggy coats or boots could keep me from shivering, so here I am, looking for a warmer – and more permanent – home.

With all the changes in my life, my toilet training has slipped a bit. But I’m a clever little guy and eager to learn – consistency and patience will go a long way. And don’t underestimate me just because I’m small! I’m game for training and would love to try something like agility or other fun dog sports. I tested some of the equipment at Animatch and let me tell you – I nailed it.

So, if you’re ready for 10 pounds of sass, smarts, and snuggles – and you’re willing to commit for the next 15 years – I’ll be packed and waiting at the door. Just fill out that application and ask for Oscar. Let’s start our next adventure together!
