About Otto

Otto is in urgent need of a foster home where he can feel safe and begin to heal. He's a medium-sized mixed-breed dog, made up of Boxer and Pit Bull Terrier, but that's the least of his worries at the moment. When you approach his kennel, it’s not the typical excited dog you see; Otto trembles in fear. He army crawls out of his kennel rather than walking, too scared to lift his head. He requires a quiet, patient environment free from chaos, where he can decompress at his own pace. It's essential to have a safe space for him to retreat to, as he is more comfortable keeping low to the ground. Heinrich will thrive with someone who understands that building trust is a journey—it may take time and patience, but those small victories will be worth it. Otto may be dog friendly, having been found with another dog, which can be a positive step in his recovery. He deserves a chance to feel loved and secure. Your compassionate handling can help him discover happiness. If you can offer him the understanding he needs, please consider fostering Otto and apply today!
