What does Oscar like to do?
Natalie, 3: He takes our socks ... and he tries to get them from us!
Isabella, 5: We try to get them from his mouth but he just plays tug-of-war with them!
How does Oscar fit into family life?
Amy, 37: He loves to go on errands with us. Whenever we're leaving the house he comes right to the door. When the girls haven't seen him they'll say, "I can't wait to see Oscar!"
As a parent, what's the best thing about having Oscar?
Amy: The girls have such a great bond with him. Isabella often asks to help feed him and walk him. I feel like he's taught them to have real compassion. And a real, true love of animals.

Since 2014, Seven Days has allowed readers to comment on all stories posted on our website. While we’ve appreciated the suggestions and insights, the time has come to shut them down — at least temporarily.
While we champion free speech, facts are a matter of life and death during the coronavirus pandemic, and right now Seven Days is prioritizing the production of responsible journalism over moderating online debates between readers.
To criticize, correct or praise our reporting, please send us a letter to the editor. Or send us a tip. We’ll check it out and report the results.
