Otis knows how to wait patiently for his halter and enjoys sniffing around on his outings. He has a knack for interactive play and adores plush toys and durable chew toys. Meal times are structured, as he patiently waits for the cue before digging in. Otis thrives on daily exercise and would likely appreciate a yard, though it’s not a requirement.
