Story
Meet Otto Otto is a 4–5-year-old, 26.2-pound blue and white dachshund mix with the most beautiful eyes and the sweetest, softest heart. He came from a heartbreaking hoarding case involving 36 dogs living in horrible conditions, and of all the dogs from the case, Otto was one of the most scared when he first arrived. Since coming into foster care, Otto has made the best progress and continues to show just how much he wants to love, trust, and be part of a family. Otto’s skin issues have been addressed, and his coat has come in beautifully into a stunning silver color. Otto has the kind of eyes that look at you like he is quietly asking, “please just love me.” He gives the softest kisses and is a total sweetheart. Otto absolutely loves to cuddle in a lap, and with patience and love, he is going to be a total lap junkie. In the yard, Otto plays with the other dogs like a happy, bouncy dachshund and seems so much more carefree. He is wonderful with all dogs, from 66-pound pit bulls to tiny 16-week-old puppies. Otto loves a good chew bone. He does well eating in a group and has done well on Purina dog food. Otto has no problems with men or women. He is smart, eager to learn, and continues to grow in confidence every day. Otto is clean in his crate and does well both at night and during the day when needed. After working with him, Otto now does well on a leash. He also does well with a low fence. Otto has had a brief encounter with a cat, and it went very well. He sniffed curiously, and when the cat hissed at him, he simply backed up like, “well that’s not friendly,” and went to lay down. What makes Otto so special is how far he has come. Beneath the fear was always a deeply loving, gentle little dog who just needed safety, patience, and kindness to shine. Otto is neutered, up to date on all vaccinations, and on preventions. Otto’s glow-up is already happening, and his best days are still ahead of him.If you are looking for a sweet, affectionate little dog with a gentle heart, a smart mind, and so much love to give, Otto may be your perfect match. Please fill out an adoption fee if you would like him to join your family. His $325 adoption fee covers medical care up to adoption to include vaccines, neuter, microchip, foster care and transportation from Louisiana to NY.
