Otis was rescued from a yard in Puerto Rico alongside his brothers Morty and Finn. Their parents are incredibly friendly and social, and their puppies absolutely inherited those traits.

These puppies are truly amazing. Otis has been one of the easiest puppies in the group. He is playful, outgoing, well behaved, and plays beautifully with the other puppies.

He is affectionate without being overwhelming, adapts well to new environments, and overall has the type of balanced temperament that makes for an easy transition into a home. Otis is happy, silly, and genuinely enjoys being around both dogs and people.

All he needs is a family that will continue giving him the love, safety, and companionship he deserves.
