Oscar_in_back_of_truck

Alayne got this shot of old, deaf Oscar snoozing in his favorite place, our Dodge Ram 2500 pick-up truck.  This is the "Mega Cab" version of the Ram, and you can see why they call it that … this is the back seat area, folded down.  We can actually set up a giant dog crate in there, it’s that big.

And it’s plenty big enough for a tiny miniature Dachshund who wants to sack out while his Mommy unloads ranch supplies.  Whenever Alayne is anywhere around the truck, Oscar races to get inside.  He loves going for a ride, but if the truck’s not going anywhere, why, there’s no better place for a nap.

    I’m glad to see another post about good old Oscar. He and my Toby could be a couple of deaf, black and tan dachshund twins.

    That is sweet! Well, at least y’all know where to find Oscar if you need him!
    My cat, also my minion, jumps into my truck for a snooze whenever she finds it open so I can completely understand Oscar’s attaction.

    Truck dog! Somehow, those Doxies just KNOW how to find comfort. Again, with Oscar’s inspiration, I’m thinking a nap sounds great now!

    What a sweetie! My babies are the same way, except instead of a truck, my cat Cleo is a sucker for any basket of clothes! 🙂

    Oscar is one smart dog…..like my mom’s old girl, Daisy. She, too, would hop in the car whenever a door happened to be open. She was always ready to go! Oscar is also ready to go whenever and wherever!!!
