About Otis

Meet Otis, our spirited and playful boy! This handsome Whippet mix, weighing 37 pounds, is a charming representative of fun-loving dogs everywhere. Otis joined us at Save the Animals Foundation after his previous owner could no longer keep him due to pet restrictions. He’s friendly with everyone he meets, enjoys the company of other dogs, and has even cohabitated with cats. Otis is house trained and crate trained, making him a wonderful addition to any home. As an active dog, he thrives on playtime and activity, so he’s best suited for someone who shares that zest for life. While he’s never attempted to climb fences in the past, he can, so supervision is essential when he’s outdoors. Once the fun winds down, Otis adores curling up with his favorite humans, sharing his affectionate nature. Could Otis be your new best friend? Let’s find out together!
