My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Otto von Belle is an adorable 8 week old Shepherd/Husky mix puppy. Otto has kind of a sad little face because of the black under his eyes, but is the waggiest of puppies, who likes and trusts everyone, both dogs and humans. His eyes are very soulful and he is very snuggly. Otto is the strong silent guy who gets the girl in the end. He is confident and self-assured, sits politely for treats, plays with his brothers to fit in, but rarely starts the shenanigans. Seems just as happy to play on his own or hang out with humans for snuggles. He wants everyone to be happy and like him. Seems to be very good at reading the signals of and emotions of dogs and humans. Otto is a thinker more than doer. He is crate trained and almost fully there on potty training.

Otto von Belle is in a foster home, offsite, and is NOT at our rescue location in Los Angeles.

Based on our experience, Westside's current thinking is to usually match first-time shepherd owners with a mix versus a purebred shepherd. Mixes are "softer" and somewhat more malleable. Exceptions can be made, however, for first-time adopters who show the confidence and leadership tendencies that purebreds will respect and respond to. Counselors have to use good judgment in assessing the attributes of the adopter, as well as of the dog. If you have doubts, get a second opinion from Robin or another experienced counselor.
