Otis is an 8-year-old Basset Hound who ended up with Suncoast Basset Rescue after his previous family could no longer care for him due to illness. He brings a calm, sweet personality and is an easygoing presence in the home. Otis is especially happy around other dogs and will need another dog in his future household—he thrives on companionship, even enjoying the company of playful young pups. He's mostly a gentleman but can't resist a kitchen counter if left unchecked, so don't be surprised if you find him nose-up and curious. A secure, fenced yard is a must for Otis because he likes to explore and will take off if given the chance. Overall, he is affectionate, gentle, and just wants to be with his people and furry friends. Whoever brings Otis home is truly getting a steady, loyal companion. Ready to fall in love?
