Oasis′s Story

Hey, I'm Oasis!

Back in the day, I was a stray, and someone took me to the local pound of the area I was found. The environment there was not ideal for me to overcome my fears. As a result, I ended up incredibly stressed, shaking in fear, and it wasn't easy for me to trust anyone. I spent three months there without any progress.

As soon as the 2ndchancedogs team heard about me, they were kind enough to offer me a place at their centre. That was in 2019. I am still here. I want to have the opportunity to feel what it's like to be part of a family in a home. I'm learning a lot from my doggie friends here, and it's sad to see them all go to their forever homes. I'm happy for them, but it's really sad for me to watch them leave one by one. I mean, when will my turn come?

Character & Temperament

I’m a very sensitive and shy boy, and the world still feels like a big, overwhelming place to me. I often find it hard to settle, and when I feel unsure, I tend to pace, hide, or look for ways to escape what frightens me. But I’m slowly learning, with the gentle guidance of my doggie friends, that not everything is so scary.

Ideal Home for Oasis

The ideal home for me would be a calm, adults-only household without frequent visitors—somewhere peaceful where I can truly relax. I need someone with the patience and time to help me gently rebuild my trust in humans. Having a resident dog would be a huge comfort to me, as I feel safest when I can follow a more confident canine friend. I'm almost 10 years old now, and what I need more than anything now is a quiet, loving home where I can live out the rest of my days feeling safe, understood, and cherished.
