But a happy one

Oscar was born to a Corgi mom and a Pug dad. The farm his parents lived on bred corgis and pugs, but a little accident brought Oscar into the world. He had quite a few brothers and sisters, all looking very much like him. Curly tails, short legs, and a tan/white body with a black muzzle.

He was very small when we brought him home with extremely short legs. It took him a long time to be able to go up and down stairs. Those little stubby legs didn't get much longer, but Oscar finally figured out how to use them to his advantage. He's now a really good jumper!

Well it was all about his eyebrows

It took us about a week to settle on a good name for our puppy. Nothing we tested out seemed to really fit him. But for some reason I kept coming back to those black markings above his eyes that gave him the look of big fat grouchy eyebrows and for some reason Oscar seemed fitting. It stuck, though we sometimes call him monkey or skur.

He's a fun loving dog

Oscar is a very friendly dog. He absolutely loves to play with the other neighborhood dogs. One of his best bud's lives right next door. This is a picture of them celebrating their 6 month birthdays.

He also likes to hang out with us and enjoys camping trips and nice long walks around the lake. He used to enjoy swimming, but now is a little unsure of the water.

If he could only have one toy, Oscar would choose a tug toy. He is the master at tug a war and will not let go, even if you lift him up and suspend him in air. He has also perfected the head whip kill maneuver.
