About Otter

Meet Otter, lovingly known as Otter Paws! This charming senior dog is a total cuddle bug who thrives on affection. He adores snuggling up next to his human, soaking up belly rubs as he quietly sleeps in bed each night, making him a well-mannered companion who enjoys close company. Otter also has a spirited side, loving walks, hikes, and car rides with his favorite people. He’s excellent on a leash and has even tackled a five-mile hike! Although he has some arthritis in his back and hind legs, it doesn't hold him back. Chasing squirrels and engaging in tug-of-war with his rope toys remain as enjoyable activities for him. A home with a fenced yard where he can safely roam and a family that can dedicate time to daily walks would be ideal for Otter. He prefers to be the only dog so he can bask in all the love and attention he rightly deserves. This sweetheart wants nothing more than to spend his golden years feeling safe and cherished. Could you open your heart and home to Otter Paws? Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
