Meet Otto <br/> Otto is a 4–5-year-old, 23-pound blue and white dachshund mix with the most beautiful eyes and the sweetest, softest heart.<br/> 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.<br/> 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.<br/> Otto's skin issues have been addressed, and his coat has come in beautifully into a stunning silver color.<br/> Otto has the kind of eyes that look at you like he is quietly asking, “please just love me.”<br/> He gives the softest kisses and is a total sweetheart.<br/> Otto absolutely loves to cuddle in a lap, and with patience and love, he is going to be a total lap junkie.<br/> In the yard, Otto plays with the other dogs like a happy, bouncy dachshund and seems so much more carefree.<br/> He is wonderful with all dogs, from 66-pound pit bulls to tiny 16-week-old puppies.<br/> Otto loves a good chew bone.<br/> He does well eating in a group and has done well on Purina dog food.<br/> Otto has no problems with men or women.<br/> He is smart, eager to learn, and continues to grow in confidence every day.<br/> Otto is clean in his crate and does well both at night and during the day when needed.<br/> After working with him, Otto now does well on a leash.<br/> He also does well with a low fence.<br/> 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.<br/> 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.<br/> Otto is neutered, up to date on all vaccinations, and on preventions.<br/> Otto's glow-up is already happening, and his best days are still ahead of him.<br/>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.
