About Otis

Otis is a 7-year-old neutered male Jack Russell Terrier, known for his long legs and playful spirit. Currently tipping the scales at 21 pounds, he comes from a home where his exercise needs couldn't be met due to a poorly fenced yard. His owners are looking to find him a secure and active environment that understands terrier energy. Otis thrives in the company of people and children, and he holds his own when it comes to sharing space with dogs. Though he has gotten along well with a house cat, potential adopters should be aware that he may chase unfamiliar outdoor cats. This spirited boy enjoys car rides and delights in playtime with squeaky toys and fetch, making an outdoorsy hiking family the perfect match for him. A refresher in leash training through positive reinforcement would be beneficial. Otis is house trained and current on vaccinations. He is currently located in Clatskanie, OR.
