OTTER

Does Otter remind you of someone? Maybe a certain PAC alumnus... or maybe even two. Meet Otter, our handsome 2-year-old pittie mix who was found as a stray in St. Charles back in March. As he's settled in, we've all noticed something funny—he's growing right into his face and looking more and more like the perfect mix of two former PAC favorites, Otto and Chevy! Otter has officially completed his heartworm treatment, and if you can imagine spending months recovering in a shelter while your activity had to be restricted, it's easy to understand why he was ready to stretch his legs. He's finally able to enjoy life again, and we're so excited for him. Like many shelter dogs, Otter can show some frustration behind the kennel door. He's eager to get outside, and all that excitement can make him look like a completely different dog than he really is. Once he's out? That's where the real Otter shines. He's a medium-energy sweetheart who loves being with his people. Belly rubs, affection, and soaking up attention are at the top of his favorite things list. He walks nicely on leash, is partially potty trained, is very food motivated, and already knows sit and shake. In playgroups, Otter has shown us he's a sensitive guy. He doesn't enjoy dogs rushing into his space and would likely do best with slow, respectful introductions to calm dogs or as the center of attention in his own home. He also enjoys enrichment and leisurely walks more than the chaos of a busy play yard. Otter has spent months waiting for someone to see past the kennel door. Shelter life isn't easy, especially after recovering from heartworm treatment, but he hasn't stopped hoping. Please don't let a few moments of kennel excitement decide his future. Ask a staff member to take him out, spend a little time together, and meet the sweet, loving dog he truly is. We have a feeling you'll fall for the real Otter.
