We got Oscar, our 4 year old Dachshund, by accident. He was given to my Aunt after being rescued from a miserable life in Minnesota but he only had eyes for me. Lucky for me, my Aunt realized this and evenutally officially gave Oscar to me instead of me having to steal him.
Just recently we rescued Chata, a 1 year old PitBull. We took Oscar to the vet for his yearly check-up and there was the picture of Chata. She was taken to the vet and was never picked-up. One of the technicians at the vet tried to take her home but she was too much for her and her other animals so we decided to give her a chance. After a few tense days we all fell in love with her...even Oscar!
