My story

**If you have any questions about Otis after reading his profile, you can contact a volunteer at 757-237-2430 who can answer your questions.** Field Trip with Otis on 10/18 I took Otis to meet my daughter at the park and get pictures. He jumped up in the car and took his place, quietly taking in the scenery on the ride. At the park, he barked at my daughter when she walked up, but she threw him a slice of ham and they instantly became friends. He mostly cooperated as we positioned him for pictures, but he loved all the attention from two people. When we got back to the shelter, I took him for a walk on the back trail. He sat there for 15 minutes just taking all the smells around the lake. Otis the kind of dog that grows on you. He does not like everyone at first, and it’s random who he barks at, but when he does, give him a quality treat and he will usually warm up quickly. He loves to give and receive attention but is also happy to just sit and chill out. He loves fetch when he is in the mood, but he’s not obsessed with it and will often wind down after a few throws.  Come in and meet Otis. With a little patience and some quality treats, you will probably make friends quickly.

He was pretty good on the leash although he pulled in the excitement as they all do when stuck in a shelter cage and finally get the opportunity to go outside. Otis is well mannered in the home, experienced if you will. He is fun and loves to run and play outside. He is good with older kids and is looking to be an only pet. He doesn't seem to like when people ride by on bicycles, though, so now you know! Otis is currently in a back kennel so if you don't see him when you come in, please just ask!Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.May 13, 2025, 1:03 pm
