Otto (Courtesy Post) - Adopt Me!'s Story

Meet this handsome 3-year-old German Shepherd mix, Otto rescued from the Downey Shelter in Downey, CA. He is fully vetted--neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped--and now ready for a loving forever home.<br/><br/>He is good with small dogs, big dogs, cats, and people. He has no bite history and no aggression. He has also completed training with multiple professional trainers.<br/><br/>He is unsure of some people, especially women, likely due to past trauma. He may softly growl or bark at times, but with patience, consistency, and continued training, he is making great progress. He just needs someone willing to give him reassurance and structure so he can continue to thrive.<br/><br/>He is currently in training in Northridge, CA. This boy is ready for a second chance. If you cannot foster or adopt, please share his story to help him find his forever family.
