Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Othello was found as a stray, and from his condition the animal control officers think he had lived outside on a chain for a long time. This poor gentle giant never had a whole lot of training but does sit on command. He is probably 3 years old, and a big handsome fellow who really likes people and other dogs. He is calm and smart but is strong on a leash since he probably never was taken for a walk in his life. When challenged with food, resources and other dogs, Othello is a perfect gentleman. Because he is smart we believe he will be fairly easy to train and housebreak. We do not recommend him to a family with small children basically due to his size. We know he is dog friendly but have not tested him with cats yet
