Otis is a very sweet dog who came into rescue with 13 other dogs from a hoarding situation. He is good with cats, and dogs of all sizes. Otis is a little shy when first meeting new people but once he trusts you he will be your shadow and best friend for life. Otis requires a home with a fenced in yard. No electric fences please. Otis is looking for a family who wants to chill on the couch and pet him or let him sit in your lap. He does like to play with other dogs so a home with a friend is a plus but not required. Otis has not been in a home with kids but older children would be best for him. Due to Otis's previous life he is not 100% potty trained yet but we are working on that with him. He is neutered, up to date on all shots, microchipped and he has just had a dental. If you are looking for a best friend who wants to be with you all the time Otis is your guy!
