6/29 STRAY | German Shepherd / Siberian Husky Mix | Male | Intact | 1 Year 1 Month | 48.4 lbs | HW Negative

💙 Volunteer Notes:
Ottis has the most blue eyes I have seen in awhile. He had a lot of energy in the kennel when I went to leash him, but that's understandable after being in the kennel most of the day. He walked great on the leash and knows sit. He did get a little overstimulated when I was petting him and he started jumping on me. He seemed to be easily redirected though when I stood up and touched his collar. After being outside for a few minutes he calmed down and enjoyed sniffs around the run. Then he came back for more pets.

📝 Shelter Notes:
7/9/26: Otis was very vocal in his kennel. He walked on a semi-tight leash to the runs, then became vocal toward other dogs while returning to his kennel, even while covered.
7/8/26: Otis spent much of the day vocalizing in his kennel and repeatedly knocking over his water bowl. He walks well on a loose leash but appears very stressed in the kennel environment. During an afternoon walk, he pottied outside but immediately resumed crying and whining once back in his kennel.
7/4/26: Moved to a new kennel. Walked on a loose leash with another handler. Throughout the morning he cried and whined in front of his kennel with heavy panting and drooling. He initially refused to re-enter his kennel after his walk but was eventually guided back inside, where he continued whining.
7/2/26: Greeted staff with a relaxed body, soft eyes, and open mouth. Easily leashed, walked well on a semi-loose leash, and returned to his kennel without issue.

💙 Ottis is a young, friendly dog who walks beautifully on leash and greets people with a relaxed body and soft expression. The shelter environment appears to be overwhelming for him, causing constant crying, whining, and stress in his kennel. Despite his anxiety inside the shelter, he continues to do well during walks and simply needs the chance to decompress in a loving home where he can finally feel safe.
