Oscar

Oscar was rehomed from the Ark 3 years ago but had to be returned because the other bigger dog in the home was bullying him and had actually injured him. At 11 years old, he didn’t need this. He was soon adopted and has been allowed use of his family’s computer to write to us and tell us how he’s doing.

“Just to let you know that I am doing alright in my new home. My new Mum and Dad are taking care of me well, catering to my every whim!  I had a few restless nights, understandably, when Mum gave me cuddles, but I am getting much more settled now.  At night I have a choice of a dog bed, fleeces, and even a dog crate for safety, but I have opted for the fleece.  My Mum gives me a teddy to go to bed with.  Think I’m a bit too grown up for a teddy, but if it keeps her happy …..  I am carried up and down the stairs every night, so it’s nice to be in the bedroom with my new pet parents.  My new step brother and sister sleep in the kitchen ( the cocker spaniels, Freddie and Ruby).  Yesterday I went to the groomers.  She is a nice lady and took it easy as she knew I am a rescue.  Freddie and Ruby had already tested the water with the groomer so I knew it would be alright.  I’m looking very smart.  In fact she reported how good I had been.  I go for little walks every day and glad that the weather has improved for all.  I have also been taken to a garden centre, had a visit from a neighbour and will be meeting some relatives at the weekend.  It’s all go!  I’ve been told that I am going on a couple of little breaks with Mum and Dad in the summer.  Well, thank you to all at the Ark for looking after me and here’s hoping that all the other dogs there soon find their forever homes.  Love to all, Oscar x”

His mum and dad say he’s settled in really well, is a delight and they’re so glad to be able to offer him the home he deserves. A real happy ending!
