About Otter

Otter, a charming Chihuahua mix, is a 12-year-old male who weighs around 10 pounds. He embodies the essence of companionship, filling each day with cuddles, snacks, and a whole lot of heart. This affectionate little gentleman spends most of his time snoozing and is quite happy to nestle beside you on the sofa. When he’s not in dreamland, he expresses himself through soft whines for attention or when he's not feeling his best. Due to his weaker rear legs, Otter isn't suited for long walks or a fast-paced lifestyle. Instead, he enjoys leisurely strolls and is friendly towards people and other dogs alike. He may require assistance with stairs and tires easily during walks, but his sweet demeanor and desire to be near you shine through. Otter's perfect home is a quiet one, where he can bask in your affection and enjoy a few gentle walks each day. He tends to get excited when you come home, and you might hear a little howl until he settles down. With a laid-back attitude and a love for treats, he brings a unique charm that makes for many delightful moments. If you're looking for a devoted companion who thrives on affection and togetherness, Otter might just be the furry friend for you! Click apply to start the adoption process.
