I can't believe it has only been 2 weeks since Oscar Wilde joined the Family. My Love for him is so deep it really seems like he has been here much longer. He gets along with my 2 year old dog so well you would think they were long lost brothers, they sleep on top of each other like one big pile of dogs. I caught my 16 year old cat playing with him the other day. I wouldn't say the cat Loves him, but he tolerates him, and sometimes amuses himself by teasing the puppy.
Mr. Oscar Wilde has learned, Come to Mommy, Sit, Lay Down, and Stay. He is pretty much leash trained and walks everyday for a couple hours with me. He Loves Fetching the Squeaker Toy, and brings it back 80% of the time, the other time greedy puppy kicks in and he runs behind a bush, digs a hole real fast and tries to hide it. Kinda Surprising but Oscar thinks he is a little Man and just this week he started lifting his Leg to pee. He is very confident now and He looks to me for approval like I am the Leader of the Pack which just melts my heart!
Thank you for Oscar! His Foster Mom did a marvelous job giving them so much love, she really made a difference in how all the puppies have become such good doggie citizens. Pit-bulls are so misunderstood, I am so glad your shelter took the time to adopt the puppies out to people who will do nothing but make good impressions on people with them. People have come up to us and after asking . . . let Oscar kiss all over their kids....even knowing he is a pit-bull. People are so impressed with how well trained he is, they have told me no way is he only 3 months old Just makes my Day the time and patience have paid off already He is a Awesome Dog!
Are You Sure It Has Only Been 2 Weeks?

Great News!! Oscar Wilde's lumps and bumps are almost all gone and his injection site is no longer oozing and is all dried up and healing. Still getting a salt water bed bath and antibiotics but looks like he won't have to do more or stronger antibiotics (whoo hoo).
Oscar Loves Booboo and sleeps n snuggles in bed with us all night long like a good little baby. He really comes to life outside, when he is in the yard with booboo he is a wild child running fast like... well not so fast but he thinks he is fast like lightning (heehee).
He has learned his name and to come when called, and Sit. He is also fetching and actually bringing the ball back to me. (he will do anything for homemade peanut butter dog treats) He is super duper smart!!...& cute 5 days 1 accident in house (yeah!)
Thank you so much for lil Oscar I Love Him so much
