OTTER

Meet Otter, our handsome 2-year-old pittie mix who was found as a stray in St. Charles back in March. Otter has officially completed his heartworm treatment, and after months of recovering in a shelter with restricted activity, he was understandably READY to get moving again. Now that he can enjoy life, we're getting to see more and more of the real Otter. Like many shelter dogs, Otter can show some frustration behind the kennel door. He's eager to get outside, and that excitement can make him look like a completely different dog than he really is. Once he's out? That's where Otter shines. He's a medium-energy sweetheart who absolutely loves his people. Belly rubs, affection, attention, and cuddles are high on his list of favorite things. And he's got some pretty great life skills, too! He is a GREAT car rider! He is great with kids! He walks nicely on leash. He's potty trained. He's very food motivated. He knows sit and shake. In playgroups, Otter has shown he can be respectful of nervous dogs and playful with the puppies! Otter has spent months waiting for someone to see past the kennel door. Shelter life isn't easy, especially after everything he's been through, 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 Otter out. Take him for a walk. Take him for a car ride. Give him a chance to show you who he really is. We have a feeling you'll fall for the real Otter.
