  2. Could our buddy Oscar please be persuaded to bite a few folks in Springfield? A few nibbles, to scare ‘em?

  3. I hope there a little extra something on the grill for Oscar.

  4. ===be persuaded to bite a few folks===

    Can’t happen. He’s too full of love.

  6. =Dad, I’m here to help. In case you need anything. Like, if you needed me to taste anything for you.=

  8. “Maybe if I bark loud enough, Dad will drop a hot dog! And I can eat it!”

  9. =Ruff= job guarding the grill, but someone got to do it.

    He’s just pitching in and helping with the cooking. That way he earns his part of the grub.

    Though he probably gets some either way lol. Who can say no to Oscar?

  10. Oscar always helps put me in a better mood. Isn’t it amazing how our four footed friends always manage to do that!

  11. What a sugar!

    Comment by Dome Gnome Tuesday, Jun 21, 16 @ 12:42 pm

  12. I have just enough time to say “Thanks, Oscar, for keeping us all sane and you rock!”

  13. Rich, What kind of dog is Oscar? Reminds me some of my Wheaten Terrier/Poodle mix, who helps me build things by lying under the shade provided by a table and looking at me to make sure I’m not going indoors. :)

  14. Wow only 13 comments in over an hour Hopin’ Oscar has not lost the magic. Guessin’ the Capt Faxers and Faxettes are still dizzy from the a.m. BigBrain Loopey-Doopee on the StopGap Workin’ Groups.

  15. Dogs are heart healthy. I love the Oscar pics.

  16. Dogs LIKE grilled meats.

    Comment by Qui Tam Tuesday, Jun 21, 16 @ 2:26 pm

  17. Love Oscar!

  18. Rich, you should take Oscar to the capitol to help soften the legislators moods.

    Comment by Mama Tuesday, Jun 21, 16 @ 4:00 pm

  19. My goofy owner waxed the deck.

  20. As soon as he heads back to the kitchen, I jump up and grab a rack of ribs!

    (This actually happened to us when our shepherd took off with a slab of baby back ribs years ago)

  21. You have to love dogs! They’re always loving, honest, faithful and happy to see us. Oscar you look like you could be a sweet, little pistol :)

  22. Everybody’s focusing on grilling/meat, but that’s not what Oscar is after. With his front legs flat on the deck and his butt in the air, he’s saying “Let’s play!”

  23. Oscar may be the cutest and most hopeful thing posted about the state of this state in several years. Thank you, Oscar, for a bit of cheer!
