Meet otis

🤍 OTIS 🤍

Some dogs are special the moment you meet them.

Otis is one of those dogs.

When Otis arrived at the shelter, he was so severely emaciated that he was immediately placed on the euthanasia list unless a rescue stepped in. You could see every rib, every vertebra, every bone in his tiny body. He was starving.

But despite everything he had clearly been through… Otis was still kind.

Still loving.
Still trusting.
Still happy to be around people.

Within his very first week in rescue care, Otis gained nearly 30% of his body weight on his carefully managed refeeding plan, and he has continued getting stronger every single day. His bloodwork looked remarkably good considering the condition he came in, and now this sweet boy is finally becoming the healthy, happy dog he was always meant to be. 🐾

And honestly? Everyone who meets Otis falls in love with him.

There are multiple volunteers already joking about “foster failing” because he is just THAT wonderful.

✨ Loves every person he meets
✨ Great with other dogs
✨ Afraid of cats (so respectful cat roommates are okay!)
✨ Gentle, affectionate personality
✨ Melts into you when you pet him
✨ So grateful to be loved

Otis is the kind of dog who makes you feel like he knows he was saved.

You can see it in the way he looks at people. In the way he leans into affection. In the way he wakes up every day excited just to be alive.

Otis will be ready to go home during the first week of June after his neuter and final vaccines, and we are searching for a very special forever family for this very special boy. ❤️
