Description:
Welcome to ShepHeroes, Otte.Otte is a three-and-a-half to four-month-old sable shepherd puppy bursting with energy and charm! This sweet boy loves people and gets along beautifully with other dogs, including the senior shepherd in his foster home. Otte lives the dream on three acres, where he gets to romp and explore after spending the day at the office, charming everyone he meets. Otte gets to head to the office with his foster mom, where he's a star attraction, always ready for love and belly rubs. He was a favorite at the vet office, where he got a great checkup, cuddled on laps, and kissed the vet staff while getting his vaccines. Otte's winning personality and adorable antics are hard to resist. He's been having adventures in his very shepherd-experienced foster home, where he's learning all about chickens, horses, and all the other critters, in addition to good household manners and potty and crate training. Otte is a brave little guy who walks over things, through things, and all kinds of surfaces without a pause, sniffing to his heart's content. At first, Otte thought a leash on him was like lava, but he's easily mastered being on a leash and sitting. Otte is spending this week at another one of our fosters while his original family has vacation plans. Following the two resident dogs, Otte immediately mastered the doggie door in this new foster home. He's met the two resident cats and realized they have rules, too. He's already sharing toys with the dogs and having a blast. He thought the carrot he got for a treat was yummy; it might have been his first carrot. And he slept through the night in his crate, slumbering away for 7 hours. Otte's littermate, Amelia, is in her own shepherd-experienced foster home, living with an adult shepherd, and we're also learning more about her. We ask adopters interested in Otte to have experience with shepherds or similar herding or working breeds and the time and resources to commit to lots of love, structure, environmental exposure, and training.As a foster-based rescue, ShepHeroes is always in need of fosters. An overwhelming number of shepherds in our local shelters need our help for a fresh start. Would you be willing to share your home and part of your summer to help shepherds find new families? You provide the love, and we'll provide everything else! Saying "yes" today truly saves a life. Complete this https://www.shepheroes.org/foster-form, and we'll be in touch ASAP! We appreciate your consideration.
