great looking dog. I can tell just by looking at him that he’s extremely self-confident.

Little guy makes me smile every time.

Afternoon AHHHH
Thanks Rich!

Cute puppy.
Please promise us there’ll be no pictures in a sailor suit, devil costume or the like…
Don’t do Oscar like that.
Comment by Jake From Elwood Thursday, Dec 17, 15 @ 2:17 pm
This is a first - Rich may be more groomed than Oscar!

ah, soothing puppy cam! that request yesterday was hilarious!

Happy holidays, Oscar!
Comment by Archiesmom Thursday, Dec 17, 15 @ 2:18 pm
nice, really nice. That made my day.

Always great seeing Oscsr here. He’s like an old friend already, bringing you back to your Zen.
Love seeing him.

Yep. Smooths out all the wrinkles.
Thanks Dog.

Always puts a smile on my face regardless of the other contentious discussions discussions and topics being discussed on this blog. Thanks

Rich: I think it would have been funnier if you had committed to an Oscar picture each week until a budget is passed. But more Oscar is better Oscar. We’re the winners here.

Always need an Oscar break …
Comment by RNUG Thursday, Dec 17, 15 @ 2:43 pm
Oscar looks like he’s dying to know: who’s a good boy? Really, who is it? Who can it be?
I think he’ll be happy when you tell him Rich.

great idea to have a weekly appearance by Oscar
Comment by cb Thursday, Dec 17, 15 @ 2:44 pm
Oh, Oscar! All I want for Christmas is you in a Santa hat next week!
Comment by Gone, but not forgotten Thursday, Dec 17, 15 @ 2:46 pm
Adorable!

He must be a good dog I don’t see any yellow stains on the carpet!

It’s 2015.
Comment by Anon Thursday, Dec 17, 15 @ 3:20 pm
Reminds me that we too once had an Oscar.
He truly was a friend of mine.
Enjoy your little fellow & thanks for sharing!

So cute. I had to put my dog to sleep a month ago and it was one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do.
Comment by ihpsdm Thursday, Dec 17, 15 @ 3:22 pm
Rich, as a fellow dog owner, I can say they’re better than a room full of therapists!

Comment by Mollies Dad Thursday, Dec 17, 15 @ 3:26 pm
I love my dog
He’s my dog
If you don’t love my dog
That’s okay
I don’t want you to
He’s my dog

OSCAR!
Comment by Barton Lorimor Thursday, Dec 17, 15 @ 3:56 pm
Me thinks Miller planted this question so he could justify continued Oscar posts…

“Rough!” was how Oscar described his hiatus from the blog during his Q&A session.

Give the people what they want
Comment by Fun with Numbers Thursday, Dec 17, 15 @ 4:17 pm
Cheap Seats - I don’t care if he planted it or not. Many of us here love Oscar. He helps some of us realize that there are equally important things to think about than “hostage taking” and the Turn Around Agenda. And sorry, I should have proofed an earlier post before sending it.

===I don’t care if he planted it or not===
lol
Who would ever plant a question like that?
Hilarious.
Move along.
Comment by Rich Miller Thursday, Dec 17, 15 @ 4:19 pm
He blends in nicely, which begs the question: Does Oscar shed a lot or was your carpet always that color?
Comment by Just Askin' Thursday, Dec 17, 15 @ 4:23 pm
Keep in mind my post was a joke folks…A little humor is needed.
Comment by View from the Cheap Seats Thursday, Dec 17, 15 @ 4:28 pm
Oscar’s very handsome. Next up, his own Twitter feed?

Where is the “like” button?
Comment by Duncan Sheltie Thursday, Dec 17, 15 @ 5:13 pm
Thanks “Cheap Seats” we need a little “humor” on this site quite often. And thanks to Rich as well.
Comment by illini Thursday, Dec 17, 15 @ 5:22 pm
Rich, Oscar told me he wants a ham bone for Christmas.
Comment by Mama Thursday, Dec 17, 15 @ 5:29 pm
For those of you wondering if it was a planted question, I am the one that asked it. Too often pictures of Oscar are the only cheerful thing on this blog.

It’s been two dog years without a budget
Comment by Anonymous Thursday, Dec 17, 15 @ 6:30 pm
Clint W. Sabin - just got back home and online after a meeting - Thank you for asking the question. We all respect Rich, but we love Oscar. And you are so right - we all need a a cheerful break from the normal discourse on this site.
