Otis

Description

Meet Otis!Otis is a 45-pound gentleman with a calm, gentle personality and a heart of gold. He's the kind of dog who's happiest simply being by your side—whether you're heading out for a stroll, working in the garden, or relaxing on the couch with a good book.Otis is fully house trained, has excellent house manners, and walks beautifully on leash. He rides wonderfully in the car, settles easily at home, and is just as content accompanying you on daily adventures as he is enjoying a quiet afternoon. He has a medium energy level and enjoys a few leisurely walks each day without needing constant activity.Otis has done wonderfully with other dogs at adoption events and has been great with children. While he can be a little shy when meeting new people, especially in busy environments, he warms up with a little patience and quickly shows his sweet, affectionate nature. Once you're part of his circle, he'll happily follow you from room to room, lean against you for comfort, or rest his head in your lap with a wagging tail.He knows several basic commands, is comfortable in a crate, and has proven to be a respectful, easy companion in the home. His favorite things are spending time with his people, enjoying a bully stick, and simply being included in whatever the day brings.If you're searching for a sweet, steady best friend who will quietly fill your home with love, Otis may be the perfect match. This dog is up to date on vaccinations and is spayed or neutered. (Please note: Puppies under 3 months old may not be sterilized prior to adoption. If this is the case, your adoption coordinator will provide guidance on the process.) To adopt or learn more about this dog, you must complete an adoption application, which can be found on our website: www.sandypawsrescue.com. PLEASE READ:    •    If a dog or puppy is listed, they are currently available for adoption. However, they may already be pending an adoption, and their profile may not yet reflect this.    •    All information is accurate to the best of our knowledge as of the posting date.    •    Unless explicitly stated, Sandy Paws Rescue does not guarantee the breed of any dog. Breeds listed are educated guesses made by shelter staff, volunteers, or veterinarians. Many of our dogs are mixed breeds, often with pit bull-type genetics, resulting in a wide variety of physical traits and temperaments. Our dogs come from various situations, such as kill shelters, owner surrenders, or as strays. It is likely both parents were mixed breeds as well. Sandy Paws Rescue does not have a public shelter in Massachusetts. Our dogs reside in private foster homes or boarding kennels in the South until adopted. Many dogs are spoken for prior to transport or release from state-mandated isolation. For information on adoption fees, procedures, or FAQs, visit our website: www.sandypawsrescue.com. The FIRST step in adopting from Sandy Paws Rescue is to submit a completed adoption application.
