P.S. Dr Ward said he would need to go before May cause they don't fly fish after that cause it is to hot!!! so he is going to try to figure out some dates when he can get away!!! Thanks again Mo for your incredible offer!!! YOU AND JOE ROCK!!!

My friend Karen wants to help sponsor Oscar, I sent you an e-mail.

Is he staying in the shelter with the other dogs? Does he seem to be okay with the other dogs around? The cropped ears make me think someone used him as a fighting dog at one point.

Hey Ciaron, is a check to the Texas address ok too? I am asking for a friend who wants to sponsor him. I just want to give her all of her options as she does not have access to a computer at home. Thanks!!!

Oscar

Seeing Oscar really upset me. I don't understand how anyone can do this to an animal. I have sent a donation and hopes it helps a little. I'll be checking in from time to time to see how Oscar is doing. Hopefully, he will start to SMILE again.

about Oscar's story! My heart is broken for how he was treated, but at least he is with you guys now. After his body wounds are healed, his soul will heal. It is amazing to me what dogs can get through with love, patience, gentilness, being treated well and learning respect for themselves again by people respecting them (my pup Riley is a perfect example there). It will take time, but prayers are with Oscar to heal in all ways!
