My Story

Oscar and Ricardo are a very sweet loving bonded pair that came into rescue from a shelter. Their foster mom felt she was so lucky and happy to receive them!


They are very wise gentlemen. Both love to cuddle and snuggle with anyone! If you are on the couch they love to be up there with you. Oscar will talk to you and ask to be let up on the couch. Ricardo will just stare at you to be let up. They are both great on a leash and love their daily walks. Both love car rides and love to go get groceries at the Walmart pickup area. They are usually very quiet and calm. But Ricardo can get a little anxious and whines at the door when his foster mom leaves. He is a worrier and always wonders what you are doing. He follows his foster mom everywhere. Oscar and Ricardo both sleep on the floor in their own beds burrowed in the covers in the foster mom's  bedroom. 


They are so sweet.  When foster mom leaves the house they are left out with their beds in the living room. They don't get into things and are very respectful of things in the house. Make sure they are on a potty schedule because if left too long they will go in the house. They are always so excited to get their treats after going potty outside.


They both had extensive details with several teeth extracted. Oscar also had some warts removed from his skin.

They both just want to be loved!  If you are lucky and able to take these beautiful boys home, you will be very happy with your new family members!

Spread the word about this lovable doxie!
